[syslog-ng] 3.2 alpha 2 build error

[syslogng at feystorm.net]

Nevermind, kinda. It looks like balabit keeps its own modified version 
of the libdbi code. In this case, I think that code should be packaged 
with syslog-ng as its really not libdbi anymore, but a fork. At the 
least it should have its own name and release package (the only place I 
could find it was git).

Also I have a problem with the balabit libdbi-drivers as well. There was 
a patch floating around the internet for the oracle drivers which 
performs a commit on every insert, and it appears the balabit code has 
this patch applied (OCI_COMMIT_ON_SUCCESS, line 306 of dbd_oracle.c). 
Forcing users of the to commit on every insert is a really bad practice 
as it seriously degrades database performance.
