Changes since 0.73:

- adapted to postgresql-6.4:
  the backend protocol has changed, which needs an adapted
  ping method. A ping-test has been added to the test-script.
  Also some type identifiers have changed. 
- Pg.xs adapted to Driver.xst from DBI-1.0
- major rewrite of module documentation 
- major rewrite of the test script
- use built-in DBI method for $dbh->do 
- add macro dHTR in order to avoid compile errors 
  with threaded perl5.005
- renamed attribute AutoEscape to pg_auto_escape
- renamed attribute SIZE to pg_size
- new attribute pg_type
- added support for DBI->data_sources($driver)
- added support for $dbh->table_info
- blob_read documented and added to test.pl 
- added support for attr parameter in bind_param()
- added /usr/lib/ to search path for libpq.
- added ChopBlanks, patch from 
  Victor Krasinsky <victor@rdovira.lviv.ua>
- non-printable characters in parameters will not be 
  converted to '.'. They are passed unchanged to the 
  database. 
- introduce new database handle attribute AutoEscape, which 
  controls escaping of quotes and backslashes in parameters. 
  When set to on, all quotes except at the beginning and 
  at the end of a line will be escaped and all backslashes 
  except when used to indicate an octal presentation (\xxx) 
  will be escaped. Default of AutoEscape is on. 
- bug-fix from Max Cohan <mcohan@adnc.net>:
  check for \xxx presentation before escaping backslash
  in parameters. 
- bug-fix from Max Cohan <mcohan@adnc.net>:
  using traces together with undef in place-holders dumped 
  core. 
- bug-fix from Matthew Lenz <matthew@nocturnal.org>:
  corrected include path in Makefile.PL .
- bug-fix from Rolf Grossmann <grossman@securitas.net>:
  undefined parameters in an execute statement will be 
  translated from 'undef' to 'NULL'. Also every parameter 
  for bind_param() will be quoted by default (escape quote 
  and backslash). Appropriate tests have been added to test.pl. 
- bug-fix from Jan Iven <j.iven@rz.uni-sb.de>:
  fix problem with quoting Null in bind variables.
