Mysql is the stock Redhat Enterprise 3 RPMs version 3. Prior versions worked fine. 

Thank you.

Exactly what mysql version is the one that comes with the ancient RHEL3? (You really should upgrade..)

This is the exact version:

mysql  Ver 11.18 Distrib 3.23.58, for redhat-linux-gnu (i386)

Apparently these don't exist in such old mysql versions. Assigned to the "guilty" one. :)

Another vote for this as an issue.

Given that RHEL3 is still in circulation quite a bit and a fair number of users use the default OS packages for compatibility reasons, is there an ETA on a fix and/or patch to resolve this?

Thanks.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change
will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at
http://snaps.php.net/.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

This should be corrected now.
