contrib/DBMirror

Back in Feburary I submitted DBMirror for inclusion in the contrib tree
and on April 14'th I got an email saying that it had been applied.
I've been unable to find it the 7.3 CVS tree.

I'm resubmitting a version with a few minor bug fixes.

DBMirror is a trigger based replication system written in C and perl.
It has a number of features that rserv doesn't including

-Support for multiple slaves
-Preserves transactions while mirroring
-Better documentation.

More details can be found in the README file.

If its not wanted in contrib let me know and I'll have it hosted on
sourceforge.

I am confused. I see an April 14th message from me saying:

This patch has been applied by someone recently. Thanks.

but I don't see dbmirror anywhere in CVS. I said "has been" so at the
time I thought it was already done. I don't see any other email
relating to dbmirror. Does anyone remember what happened?

Maybe you momentarily confused it with dbsize? It's unlikely that
anyone but you would have committed such an addition...

Yes, but I added dbsize. No idea what I was thinking then, and if no
one else does, I suppose I should add dbmirror to CVS and chalk this
down to confusion.

I have added this to /contrib. I have made minor C fixes to remove
unused variables, and created a new Makefile to match /contrib.

Thanks.
