Or what you're saying is that if you store a date of zero VALUE to MySQL it could be magically replaced by NULL internally? That would be really crazy.

I seem to recall it is actually the other way around, and storing a null results in a nonsense date.

Added bonus: some versions will segfault if you pass an un-formattable date value.
