     * PORTABILITY MODES
     *
     * These modes are bitwised, so they can be combined using <kbd>|</kbd>
     * and removed using <kbd>^</kbd>.  See the examples section below on how
     * to do this.
     *
     * <samp>DB_PORTABILITY_NONE</samp>
     * turn off all portability features
     *
     * This mode gets automatically turned on if the deprecated
     * <var>optimize</var> option gets set to <samp>performance</samp>.
     *
     *
     * <samp>DB_PORTABILITY_LOWERCASE</samp>
     * convert names of tables and fields to lower case when using
     * <kbd>get*()</kbd>, <kbd>fetch*()</kbd> and <kbd>tableInfo()</kbd>
     *
     * This mode gets automatically turned on in the following databases
     * if the deprecated option <var>optimize</var> gets set to
     * <samp>portability</samp>:
     * + oci8
     *
     *
     * <samp>DB_PORTABILITY_RTRIM</samp>
     * right trim the data output by <kbd>get*()</kbd> <kbd>fetch*()</kbd>
     *
     *
     * <samp>DB_PORTABILITY_DELETE_COUNT</samp>
     * force reporting the number of rows deleted
     *
     * Some DBMS's don't count the number of rows deleted when performing
     * simple <kbd>DELETE FROM tablename</kbd> queries.  This portability
     * mode tricks such DBMS's into telling the count by adding
     * <samp>WHERE 1=1</samp> to the end of <kbd>DELETE</kbd> queries.
     *
     * This mode gets automatically turned on in the following databases
     * if the deprecated option <var>optimize</var> gets set to
     * <samp>portability</samp>:
     * + fbsql
     * + mysql
     * + mysqli
     * + sqlite
     *
     *
     * <samp>DB_PORTABILITY_NUMROWS</samp>
     * enable hack that makes <kbd>numRows()</kbd> work in Oracle
     *
     * This mode gets automatically turned on in the following databases
     * if the deprecated option <var>optimize</var> gets set to
     * <samp>portability</samp>:
     * + oci8
     *
     *
     * <samp>DB_PORTABILITY_ERRORS</samp>
     * makes certain error messages in certain drivers compatible
     * with those from other DBMS's
     *
     * + mysql, mysqli:  change unique/primary key constraints
     *   DB_ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS -> DB_ERROR_CONSTRAINT
     *
     * + odbc(access):  MS's ODBC driver reports 'no such field' as code
     *   07001, which means 'too few parameters.'  When this option is on
     *   that code gets mapped to DB_ERROR_NOSUCHFIELD.
     *   DB_ERROR_MISMATCH -> DB_ERROR_NOSUCHFIELD
     *
     *
     * <samp>DB_PORTABILITY_NULL_TO_EMPTY</samp>
     * convert null values to empty strings in data output by get*() and
     * fetch*().  Needed because Oracle considers empty strings to be null,
     * while most other DBMS's know the difference between empty and null.
     *
     *
     * <samp>DB_PORTABILITY_ALL</samp>
     * turn on all portability features
     *
