This release fixes:

 * some PHP 5.3 compatibility issues that caused the test suite to fail
   for the previous release
 * index renaming for indexes that had particular assigned options, and
   that were being added rather than renamed or recreated under a different
   name
 * `date` and `datetimetz` OracleDB type introspection: these two types
   were incorrectly recognized as `datetime`

Total issues resolved: **4**
