Subject: Tidying up PDO tests
From: lester@lsces.co.uk (Lester Caine)

I've been looking into the failures on
http://gcov.php.net/viewer.php?version=PHP_5_3&func=tests
with relation to the firebird pdo driver, and the first problem that 
needs to be addressed is the SQL differences in order for the different 
drivers to work. I'm seeing specific fixes for some drivers in the 
tests, but how should the fact that PDO does not handle the different 
SQL requirements be addressed in these generic tests?

Obviously the first problem is identifying driver bugs from bugs in the 
tests themselves, in particular the upper/lower case 'defaults', and the 
use of non standard field definitions.
