Comment (by dilinger):
The attached patch works around the lack of 'charset' option in
MySQLdb.connect(). It checks the version of python-mysqldb; if it turns
out to be lower than 1.2.1, than it calls MySQLdb.connect() without the
'charset' option, and manually sets the charset via MySQL's 'SET NAMES'.
Note that without setting the charset, mysql support breaks horrible; the
unicode stuff that was merged requires this.
