I've been using the deferred triggers patch in production for about a
month without any problems. I'm definitely for that as well as Jan's
patch, though I haven't used it. Anything to help out FK's and I'm
game. :)

If someone needs the clean patch for 7.3 of the deferred triggers, the
patch is at the URL below. The one originally posted didn't merge 100%
cleanly to my 7.3.2 sources.
