We don't know either, but the only place that has caused trouble in the past is
the TIMESTAMP type, where MySQL changed the beginning value from 0 to 1, i.e.
from 1970-01-01 00:00:00 to 1970-01-01 00:00:01, both UTC. We've since changed
all of the fields with a TIMESTAMP type to the DATETIME type that has a much
wider range of valid dates, more in line with GnuCash's internals.
Another possibility, though very unlikely, would be if MySQL has changed their
client API so that the libdbi-driver would fail or do something strange.
Why don't you have a go at it and report back?
