yes indeed it was track to a bug on the python mysql driver and  not inside
mysql itself or SO. I recall reading a thread about it but SF forums are
such a mess that I can't locate it now.

As a side note
Sadly the biggest problem mysqldb has is that it's sole driver for python is
lacking someone that runs windows to test most drivers it it seems the most
users are windows so they bug him a lot to get them :)
