unnecessary auto-transaction-rollback from driver - part 1 of 2

next try, I hope this time the message is not too big for
poor pgsql-odbc(at)postgres(dot)org(dot)(dot)(dot)(dot)

PLEASE MIND part 2 (another mail)

driver: psqlodbc-07.03.0100
postgres: 7.3.2
error messages: n/a
mylog: mylog_raschick10724.log
commlog(psqlodbc_????.log): psqlodbc_raschick10724.log
ODBC trace log (sql.log): n/a

when issuing (w/i a transaction) a faulty request (in this case: attempt to
set a column that does not exist) the driver will auto-rollback (see logs).
however, as the program has started the transaction, it will try to rollback
itself. this will fail. (you see this twice in the logs - dont worry, one is
destructor clean-up...)
IMHO, the driver should not do a rollback here.
while inspecting the sources, i found that it actually knows about being in
a trx (succesful "BEGIN" command), why it would not use this info, i dont
know...

P.S.: You can tune a guitar, but you can't tune a fish.
