Ok! Mea culpa. I probably didn't read the RELEASE file but i just saw a
message from someone with a similar problem.
So, correct me if i'm wrong, as long as i use LOCK's i won't be running
into trouble, right ?
BTW, do i have to install 6.4 to pass from 6.3 to 6.5?
P.S : I'm not thinking about upgrading the production server yetm just
the devel one...
