 Unfortunately not, as for the connection to support the feature, it needs
 both Client and Server to support the feature being tested.

 However, what you have run into is a legitimate bug I think, `5.0.11` is
 the latest version of `mysqlnd` in existance, and is the same that's
 [https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/master/ext/mysqlnd/mysqlnd.h#L25
 currently in PHP trunk]. I'll leave the digging to @pento as to if it
 supports the features we need..
