DBD:Mysql warning statements "Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string"

We recently upgraded to the latest and greatest version of the DBD:Mysql perl module and have been seeing these warning statements in our logs a lot (believe me a whole lot to the point of annoyance for developers skimming through logs for debug help).

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/local/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/DBI.pm line 929.

For now we went ahead and commented the line no. 929 in the /usr/local/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/DBI.pm file and have seen no side effects of that. A fairly weak solution but works for now.
