I will take this issue up with the author on Monday.  Until then, if
this is causing someone severe heart-ache, they are welcome to commit
to the driver.

Personally, I think that phk's actions should surprise no-one.  He
said a year ago that this warning would become a panic, and anyone
who wrote code that produced this warning is now getting their just
desserts for not fixing it.  I appreciate the phk has the guts to
do what's necessary to move things forward once in a while.  If I
was to make one dissention, though, it would be that a formal
'HEAD-UP' message, sent 1-2 weeks ago, would have been nice.
