Re: Enabling Single-DB mode today

Bindings: swig-py, swig-pl, swig-rb all pass their tests. ctypes-python
fails to build for me. Java: Philip said "I've run javahl tests in
single-db, 3 FAILs compared to 1 in multi-db."

Upgrading from a dev version: When the switch is made, after updating
and re-compiling, each dev using a trunk WC (format 18) will need to run
tools/dev/wc-ng/bump-to-19.py on the WC.

Running the new svn on an format-18 WC will report a friendly message
advising you to use bump-to-19.py. (Running it on an older 1.7-dev
(format <= 17) WC will probably upgrade one directory to format 18 and
then exit with that message, which doesn't sound quite right.)

Running an old svn on a format-19 (single-db) WC results in a friendly
error.

I think we're all set to switch it on.
