That's correct. I did not fix the docs for quite some time.

99a3396822 ecpg.sgml manual page updated to ON. 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

When you run 'ecpg --help' you get the following:

          -t   turn on autocommit of transactions

amongst the other options... Shouldn't this be OFF as per the
documentation?

Best regards, Lee.

636a939fe5 Fix array_out's failure to backslash backslashes, per bug# 524. Also, 
remove brain-dead rule that double quotes are needed if and only if the
datatype is pass-by-reference; neither direction of the implication holds
water.  Instead, examine the actual data string to see if it contains
any characters that force us to quote it.
Add some documentation about quoting of array values, which was previously
explained nowhere AFAICT.
