127 newlines anywhere in the data. This is an old bug that was carried
128 forward from version 1.0. To fix it, the ".dump" output no longer
129 uses the COPY command. It instead generates INSERT statements.</li>
130<li>Extend the expression syntax to support "expr NOT NULL" (with a
131 space between the "NOT" and the "NULL") in addition to "expr NOTNULL"
132 (with no space).</li>

187 iso8859-x, as it has always done. This only makes a difference for
188 LIKE and GLOB operators and the LENGTH and SUBSTR functions.</li>

190 is one of the newer ones that uses UTF-8 internally,

197 will do table locking on the GDBM backend. There is no support (yet)
198 for rollback or atomic commit.</li>

200 unique random integer key associated with every row of every table.</li>
201<li>Additional tests added to the regression suite to cover the new ROWID
202 feature and the TCL interface bugs mentioned below.</li>

210 numbers of records to be deleted or updated into a temporary file.
211 This is changed so that the record numbers are held in memory.</li>
