Do you have a source for that?  Any web host running a stock PHP 5.1 or later 
will have PDO.  They'd have to go to extra effort not to, at which point 
they're not a host worth using.  (The same applies to SPL, PCRE, XML, and a 
bunch of other "optional but default" extension that only a suicidal web host 
would disable.)
