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