Enclosed is a patch against the latest version of dbi-interbase from
cvs.

The patch:
* Fixes normal transaction mode (no more hanging on to transactions)
* Does what you suggested with autocommit (no commit_retaining)
* Works.

The patch is in CVS here (until Ed merges it):
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/zepong/parts/DBD::InterBase/?cvsroot=zepong

Please let me know if anyone finds a problem with the patch.
