Unfortunately, the documentation for mysql_errno() has
nothing to do with the way it really works.  The truth is
mysql_errno() accepts a MySQL link handle as an argument
(or uses the last open link as a default).
For that reason, mysql_errno()
is actually pretty useless, since most mysql_errno()
error levels report about connection problems, but until
a connection is actually made, there's no MySQL link handle
at all.

mysql_(p)connect() still display errors as they occur.
There's currently no real way to determine what error
occured when trying to connect to a MySQL server.
