Below is the version of wp-includes/wp-db.php for production WP 2.3.3

  1. Download the file here
  2. Copy it over the existing wp-includes/wp-db.php file
  3. Enjoy!

Below is a version that works against the latest in SVN trunk (right now revision 7152) using the new db.php override feature (apparently still not in 2.3.x)

  1. Download the file here
  2. Copy it to wp-content/db.php (important - this is a hard-coded location)
  3. Enjoy!

Let me know if there are any issues, but in my quick little sandbox I made it worked fine...
