AFAIK (and I led the project),

v7.0 (released soon and the version he asked about) has a
fear amount of FK support. The implementation misses only
MATCH PARTIAL and PENDANT from the SQL3 specs, so it's far

Special thanks go to Stephan Szabo and Don Baccus; both where
major contributors to the project.
