They may ask for a bug to be filed on bugs.php.net so it can be tracked. I did a quick search and it doesn’t seem like one has been reported yet. Did you want the honours of filing?
I have a followup workaround suggestion for this bug. JSON data can be cast as a string type on extraction:
select id, CAST(jsoncol as CHAR) from marctable;
While I trust that the bug will be fixed, there is obviously some lag in users upgrading their PHP versions. So I wonder if it is preferable to implement the workaround or conditional checking for a specific PHP version >= fix version?
(Best for you to determine obviously!)
