one I had to solve was the need for explicit casting in SQL queries that
used numeric comparison of REAL with TEXT...
yes... this used to be possible on 8.1 and is no longer on 8.3
so if your applications have such queries maybe you will bumo into some

I used stuff like this: cast(instantin as numeric)
