'gb.db2' is supposed to have the same interface as 'gb.db' as much as 
possible.

It's 'gb.db' redone now written in Gambas, with the drivers partly 
rewritten in Gambas, so that only the minimum is written in C. Easier to 
debug and fix!

So don't hesitate to report any difference, I will see what I can do to 
fix it if possible.
