I think we need to consider whether placing a constraint on the items table
agains the branches table is really a good idea. It will mean that any time you
import a record that has a branch that isn't listed in the branches table, the
query will fail, it will be in the MARC, but not in the items table:

Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails
(`jmf_koha/items`, CONSTRAINT `items_ibfk_3` FOREIGN KEY (`holdingbranch`)
REFERENCES `branches` (`branchcode`) ON UPDATE CASCADE) at C4/Biblio.pm line
3600.
