Yup it was PHP. If my question gave the impression MySQL was to blame it
wasn't meant to. There are details on the PHP site about the change
and why it's happened, I just didn't know how to fix it!
The fix (which didn't make it into a.l.r and c.l.p) for the benefit of
any future Googlers is:
yum install php-mysql
service httpd restart
