Hopefully I have the PDO stuff outlined a little better now.

I know Dmitry and Derick have both committed changes today that should go in
here, and await the outcome of the zend_parse_parameters() discussion with
interest.

Anything else missing?

"The 'sqlite2' PDO driver supplied
to PDO via the sqlite extension, allows you to access legacy SQLite 2
databases created by external processes or with earlier versions of PHP."

I'd reword this as "The sqlite extension also provides the PDO
'sqlite2' driver, and allows you to access legacy SQLite 2 databases
..."

Also: "New
projects should use PDO and the 'sqlite' (version 3) driver, as this is
faster than SQLite 2, handles write locking, and supports both prepared
statements and binary columns natively."

I'd write this instead:

"New
projects should use PDO and the 'sqlite' (version 3) driver, as this is
faster than SQLite 2, has improved locking concurrency, and supports
both prepared
statements and binary columns natively."

I have listed a few items here. I havent checked which ones you covered 
in your test:

But from a quick glance you may have missed points 4-6

I think you can add a link to the manual for the TZ stuff to show which 
timezones we support:
