Why does my ZMySQLDA Z SQL Method die with a KeyError: unhandled message?

Well, I was looking at the code for the MySQLmodule and it appears that it
has problems handling some fields.

This appears to be a limitation of the MySQLmodule.  It currently does not
handle the LONGLONG datatype longer timestamps use.

At least I assume its the LONGLONG that is messing it up.  I haven't
looked into that much detail to be honest.  

I'm not quite sure if this is something that should be included in the
FAQ, or considered a known bug, or submitted to the Collector?

Thanks,
