-        a. I realized that a driver manager doesn't aware of
-           difference between a C5 (i.e. hstmt) and a C6
-           (i.e. transaction) states.
-
-        b. The link flags "-lc" has been removed from Linux ELF
-           section of Config.mk to fix a segment fault problem.
-           Now, it works fine on Slackware 2.3 and Red Hat 2.0
-           (kernel version are 1.2.xx and 1.3.xx respectively).
-
-        c. On FreeBSD 2.x, dlsym() doesn't handle the '_'
-           prepended before a exporting function symbol. So,
-           CLI_NAME_PREFIX needs to be defined as "_SQL" for
-           FreeBSD.
-
-        d. Some files are renamed
-                dld.c   -> dlf.c
-                dld.h   -> dlf.h
