Right, but once it goes into a public release (eg. DBD::Pg 1.22) then you
are stuck supporting it/making a migration path.

Agreed. pg_enable_utf8 the flag is, then. I'll go apply the patch --
changing pg_do_utf8 to pg_enable_utf8.
David/Bruce,
1. Looking over CVS I don't see a release tag for 1.21. It would proably
be better for whoever did the export of 1.21 to tag up, but if you want I
will set up a release tag for 1.21?
2. What is the procedure for adding patches, closing bugs, working with
tasks, and working with feature requests on GBorg... Is there a place
where I can get an overview of how things are done?
