287 Version 1.50 was a major internal refactoring of SQL::Abstract.
288 Great care has been taken to preserve the published behavior
289 documented in previous versions in the 1.* family; however,
290 some features that were previously undocumented, or behaved.
291 differently from the documentation, had to be changed in order
292 to clarify the semantics. Hence, client code that was relying
293 on some dark areas of SQL::Abstract v1.* might behave differently
296 ----------------------------
