Comment (by ticoombs):

 So, even tho when I add:

 define('MYSQL_CLIENT_FLAGS', MYSQL_CLIENT_SSL);
 to my wp-config.php file. It still sends data in the clear.

 If I'm not mistaken, it will always return 0 as the variable is not
 accessible outside of the function?

 Which is what line 544 handles, in wp-db.php.
