Comment:

 The switch from retrieving an object (`$wpdb->get_row()`) to retrieving a
 string (`$wpdb->get_var()`) makes sense for 4.2. I'm hesitant to change
 the existing static behavior this late in a release, only because this bug
 went years without detection anyway. :)

 I'm going to commit the first part and create a new ticket for the update
 to `global_terms_enabled()` with unit tests for 4.3-early.
