+ * Revision 1.6  2001/06/22 19:35:20  mdw
+ * Interface change to @conn_init@ -- return error rather than calling the
+ * function.  This reduces the number of different environments the
+ * callback has to cope with, and the old behaviour is easily simulatable
+ * with the new, while simulating the new behaviour was awkward and
+ * painful.

+ * Revision 1.5  1999/12/10 23:42:04  mdw
+ * Change header file guard names.

  * Revision 1.4  1999/05/26 21:08:01  mdw
  * Remove redundant structure member.
