You can change schema IMO. It has happened already, we extended locale
field size in a minor release. Just nothing major. If you need a rule
of thumb: column attribute changes are OK but nothing else.

On fresh install session table is empty and session.inc tries to insert
a row. But it ommits uid field which is NOT NULL and inserting fails.
Attached patch makes it to have the same behaviour as 4.6

Patch doesn't apply because it ends with '.inc'.  Maybe better to use
uid int(11) NOT NULL default '0' in the table definition?

I can't change schema definition because that'd mean that db update is
needed when upgrading from 4.5.5 to 4.5.6.
As I said (although not directly) 4.6 and later does not have this bug.



Heh, at first I didn't understand what's with the .inc extension...
