273 Version 1.50 was a major internal refactoring of SQL::Abstract.
274 Great care has been taken to preserve the published behavior
275 documented in previous versions in the 1.* family; however,
276 some features that were previously undocumented, or behaved.
277 differently from the documentation, had to be changed in order
278 to clarify the semantics. Hence, client code that was relying
279 on some dark areas of SQL::Abstract v1.* might behave differently
282 ----------------------------
