<div dir="auto">I thought that a fixes branch was only for bug fixes

TFieldType in db.pas now has 6 extra elements.</div>

<div dir="auto">The result is that IBX no longer compiles with the
fixes_3_2 branch. I have also heard the same for zeoslib.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>

<div dir="auto">Is the rollout of this patch to fixes_3_2 a mistake,
or is there a good reason for rolling out a change that breaks
other packages?</div>
