+1 This is not a PHP problem. We (the PHP we, that is :) can't go
around patching PHP for every client lib that we support. That would
be hell to deal with for the developers.
We (the MySQL we, that is :) will have a patch shortly. Additionally,
an upcoming release of MySQL will feature an additional permission to
control this case.
