this, or a problem relating to this fix appears to be seg-faulting the pdo_mysql 
module on startup in ZTS mode

bug #51216 is related

commenting out REGISTER_INI_ENTRIES() in ext/pdo_mysql/pdo_mysql.c:68 php 
startup prevents the seg-fault

configure line
--------------
./configure --enable-maintainer-zts --with-mysql --with-mysqli=mysqlnd --enable-
pdo --with-pdo-mysql

In which stable version does this fix appear.

I've just upgraded to PHP 5.3.2 and whilst pdo_mysql.default_socket is returned 
correctly via ini_get(), attempting to make a connection results in the following 
exception

SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket 
'/tmp/mysql.sock'

FYI, my socket file resides at /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

I'm having this exact issue on 5.3.2 - installed via Zend Server. Having been 
hitting my head against a brick wall. I obviously can create a symbolic link, or 
use unix_socket - to point to the correct location - but would prefer localhost to 
work as expected.

So we're at v5.3.3 and this bug is still around :(

Status should be "Open"

Confirming that bug still exists in PHP 5.3.3 cli

I think this is actually fixed. The problem is subtle. Quote from http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pdo-mysql.connection.php:

--
When the host name is set to "localhost", then the connection to the server is made thru a domain socket. If PDO_MYSQL is compiled against libmysql then the location of the socket file is at libmysql's compiled in location. If PDO_MYSQL is compiled against mysqlnd a default socket can be set thru the pdo_mysql.default_socket setting. 
--

In other words, pdo_mysql.default_socket is ignored when PDO_MYSQL is compiled against libmysql.

I tested (on PHP 5.3.4, CentOS) with the code to reproduce the problem, and got the correct/expect result. But I still got the "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket" error, because it turned out that PDO_MYSQL was compiled against libmysql - "php -i" tells me "--with-pdo-mysql=shared,/usr/lib/mysql/mysql_config". My problem was that /etc/my.cnf wasn't in sync with /usr/lib/mysql/mysql_config ...
