The only solution I came up with was to run with the PHP.NET version of php_mysqli.dll and work around the bugs like returning an unknown type for any sql statement that contains a SUM function. Lucky for me there was only one page that needed to use SUM, so I returned the entire recordset and summed the values in PHP using a loop.

Not ideal or efficient I know, but it was better than holding up the release of my project.
