RE: JDBC Patch

The problem is that there are so many different places it can go. I was
thinking of moving the version stuff into DriverClass.java (which is built
dynamically by make), but I'm not sure how adding malefile.global would
affect the compilation process.

However, JDBC needs:

Full string:    "7.0.2"
Major version:    7
Minor version:    0

and those are just from memory.

If I get chance today, I'll look into it.

Peter, you can avoid this sort of thing in the future. Makefile.global
defines a variable `VERSION' that you should compile into the binaries.
I'm not sure exactly how it would work with Java, but perhaps something
like this:

javac -Dversion='"$(VERSION)"' xyz.java

or run sed before the compilation.
