Yes, sorry, I think we should leave out the ddl statements here.
The real essential part is the dml statement block in this example.
Since the create table was the first statement in the block,
the only difference between the other db's is wheather the table
exists after a rollback. They will all have the table with one row in 
it after a commit.
