Not sure if you found the workaround yet. I was having the same issue, trying
to retro-fit an SQL Server database (with bad naming conventions) to a
CakePHP application. The issue is occurring in the regex checks in
*DboSource::name()*. The fix I came up with was to create a custom
*Datasource* (as to not modify the core lib). I copied the Sqlserver.php
(probably Mysql in your case) from /lib/Cake/Model/Datasource/Database/ -to-
/app/Model/Datasource/Database/. I renamed the file and class to /SQLSRV/. I
copied the method *DboSource::name()* to the bottom of SQLSRV ( as this will
now overwrite the parent method ) and made the following change to the last
regex test in the method:

                if (preg_match('/^[\w-_\s]*[\w-_]+/', $data)) {
                        return $this->cacheMethod(__FUNCTION__, $cacheKey, 
$this->startQuote .
$data . $this->endQuote);
                }
                return $this->cacheMethod(__FUNCTION__, $cacheKey, $data);

Became ->

        if (preg_match('/^[\w-_\s]*[\w-_]+/', $data)) {
            if( strpos( $data , '.' ) !== FALSE ){
                $items = explode('.', $data);
                return $this->cacheMethod(__FUNCTION__, $cacheKey,
                    $this->startQuote . implode($this->endQuote . '.' .
$this->startQuote, $items) . $this->endQuote
                );
            }
            return $this->cacheMethod(__FUNCTION__, $cacheKey,
$this->startQuote . $data . $this->endQuote);
        }

Finally I updated the database.php in config to use the new
*Database/SQLSRV* datasource.
