title: PDO's rowCount() Not Working on PHP 5.2.6+
body: <p>So I've been using PHP's PDO as my database goto class for a while now, unfortunately today after debugging for a while on a client's server (with PHP 5.2.6 installed) I discover <a href="http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=45080" rel="noreferrer">this</a>.  We tried upgrading to the newest stable release (5.2.9) but the problem persists.</p>
  
  <p>Has anyone found a workaround?</p>
