While I would hate to cut off older plugins I think this would be a better
decision than supporting 2 layers. We would give the community plenty of
warning and then do something similar as we did when moving from PHP4 to
PHP5.

Could this not be accomplished by actually rolling a Geeklog v2.0 release
that would support PDO?
1.x branch would support the current DBs.  It's been years since GL2 was
even mentioned and finally renamed.  Why not just go with Geeklog 2.0 for
any new major caching and db enhancements?
