As far as I know, these are unrelated to PDO.

Correct, this is the PDO driver for MySQL, though I don't really
understand why pdo_mysql actually showed up in phpinfo() if this line
was commented out :-?

Assuming there's a PHP start tag, you should be getting this:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_VARIABLE
I suggest you configure your development box to display all possible
errors. You have several ways to do so:
1. Edit your "php.ini" file:
error_reporting = E_ALL | E_STRICT
display_errors = On
2. Put this on top of your script:
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT);
ini_set('display_errors', TRUE);
3. If PHP runs as Apache module, you can also use an `.htaccess` file:
# You cannot use PHP constants here
php_value error_reporting -1
php_flag display_errors on
This is not specifically related to PDO, it's how PHP error reporting
works in general.
Additionally, PDO will not throw exceptions unless you tell it to
because the default mode is PDO::ERRMODE_SILENT:
http://es2.php.net/manual/en/pdo.error-handling.php
This also implies that you cannot use exceptions to capture connection
errors unless you set PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION in the constructor.
