The database adapters I've used (Perl DBI and Java JDBC) arrange for
Boolean columns in query output to resolve as "true" or "false"
according to that language's conventions. If the PHP adapter doesn't
do this, someone needs to fix it IMHO. Different DBs have different
conventions about a lot of things and the adapters need to cope.
