I don't want this neither. So how we deal with the situation now? For me the 
wrapper that gets introduced into usrloc is not a big problem, as i don't 
think that the performance will suffer significant. But i'll try to create a 
small benchmark in the next days to get a more accurate number for the 
introduced performance penalty.

If we can't improve the API for 1.4, then the easiest thing would be to 
introduce a small #ifdef around this statement, revert to the previous state 
and remove the mysql wrapper function.

Cheers,
