Description:
------------
the phpdoc comment states the following:

* If no match was found, the return value is false
* If a match was found, the auth_user_id from the database is being returned

however, false is only returned in the event that init_ok is false, or the query returned a DB error. In the event that no match was found, the current code will have null returned as the result of the missed select query. the only concern would be type-equality checking for false incorrectly inferring that a user did not exist.
