Bug description: mysql_{p}connect could use default parameters if supplied arguments
are NULL
Description:
------------
mysql_connect() and mysql_pconnect(), when called without arguments, use
default values mysql.detault_* variables to detect what
host/username/password to use. But they do so only if they are calles
withou any argument. Could be this enhanced to use default variables
whenever NULL is used as value?
e.g. mysql_connect("new.host.name", NULL, NULL, MYSQL_CLIENT_COMPRESS)
would take mysql.default_user and mysql.default_password as username and
password.
