Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

Read release/upgrading notes.

Maybe I am a little slow here ;)
I activated the extensions (php_pdo.dll and php_pdo_mysql.dll) in the php.ini. The instantiation of the PDO base class is successfull.
If the extension is loaded, the constants should be defined, isn't it?

Did you read upgrade notes?
Ok, I can paste it here for you if don't want to do it:
"9b. Class constants in new PHP 5.1 extensions
=============================================

The Zend Engine 2.1 API allows extension developers to declare class constants
in object oriented extensions. New extensions written for PHP 5.1, including SPL,
PDO, ext/XMLReader and ext/date, have their constants in the format

PDO::CLASS_CONSTANT

rather than in the C format

PDO_CLASS_CONSTANT"
