It looks like my inexperience with Lisp made me ignore the obvious.
What is needed is not my patch below, but to add posgresql to the
condition of the case:
From:
(case (intern engine)
('mysql
To:
(case (intern engine)
('(postgresql mysql)
the problem is that I can't get it to work (and I could not find good
documentation for the case macro anywhere but its definition. It says
that it takes either an atom (i.e. 'mysql)
or a list (i.e. '(postgresql mysql) ) but it just does not work me.
But the code for mysql and postgres seems to be the same.
Sorry for the confusion.
