I think you've missed the point of this whole thread: sting escaping is 
error-prone (particularly with respect to memory) and unnecessarily 
complex.  If you've looked at the authmysql driver, you'd see that *not* 
using prepared statements requires "a considerable amount of coding".  
Prepared statements are the best way to avoid injection attacks, 
simplify code, and (usually) get the best performance possible.
