Description:
------------
Auth 1.2.3

In both cases $dsn is a class. class 'DB' for the first one and 'MDB' for the second one.

Reproduce code:
---------------
in DB.php
line 96:
} elseif (get_parent_class($dsn) == "db_common") {

in MDB.php
line 95:
} elseif (get_parent_class($dsn) == "mdb_common") {

Expected result:
----------------
DB.php
$dsn is recognized as a DB class.

MDB.php
$dsn is recognized as an MDB class.

Actual result:
--------------
The first one fails because get_parent_class($dsn) returns "DB_Common" not "db_common".

The second one fails because get_parent_class($dsn) returns "MDB_Common" not "mdb_common".

I patched it by putting a strtolower around get_parent_class($dsn).

Seems to be PHP 5 problem. PHP 4 gives the class name in lower case, PHP 5 in the "right" (original) case. Using strtolower() as suggested should fix this problem for PHP 5.
