Sorry, I've given wrong bug # in my report. The orignal issue was that
PDO fails with:
"Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '' (2)"

Description:
------------
I've ran onto problem described in bug #34988
I aknowledge that there is workaround by setting appropriate socket in
DSN, however the root cause is that PHP defaults to socket='', which
certainly won't work.
If proper socket can't be found, it would be wiser to fall back to
built-in default or fail configure script and require user to supply
socket via something like --with-pdo-mysql-socket.
Requirement to use unix_socket in DSN ties code with machine-dependent
configuration and AFAIK it's not possible to find that PDO has empty
string for default socket without connection attempt - that makes it
imperfect workaround.
