Visit
(http://ibphoenix.com/main.nfs?a=ibphoenix&s=1118085152:158180&page=ibp_60_s
ql_dialsumm) for a SQL Dialect Summary also
(http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php?op=faq#q0000.dat) to see how they
differ.

A way to think about dialects:

* Dialect 1 -- Behave as close as possible to v5.x
* Dialect 2 -- Flag out any differences as errors, warnings, etc.
* Dialect 3 -- Newly supported SQL syntax & semantics (closer to the
spec)
