So you're saying breaking BC is OK if only you can find some unaffected applications, right?
There are incimoatibilities too across libmysql versions and across mysql servers, which are actually affecting existing codes.
I don't know of any incompatibilities that change semantics on this level, and anyway libmysql is beyond our control, but mysqlnd isn't.
I cannot find any code out there relying on this test case and I very much doubt there is any. It is a non issue (unlike the is_a change for example).
