My steps: 1. Notice bug.
2. Put the /pydal folder from my 2.12.2 version of web2py into my current project. Restart server. It works. 3. Download a .zip of the gluon/packages/DAL directory from github. Replace my 2.12.2 pydal with the new version. Restart server. It fails. Not a lot of room for mistakes. And I've actually tested it a couple different ways since it was easy. New pydal is fscked for GAE unicode support.
