 New Comment:

If function has expected behaviour for 35 of 38 cases (that's how many

different types has MySQL), it is rather clear how should it behave for

remaining 3. 

> How can there be a bug if behaviour is undefined? 
Behaviour is not undefined. According to the link you provided, 
behaviour can be changed without notice, but on the moment of writing
it 
is surely defined and has a bug.

How can there be a bug if behaviour is undefined?

Tested - this bug remains actual with PHP 5.3.0 and mysqlnd.

Description:
------------
PDOStatement::getColumnMeta() doesn't return native_type for BIT, 
TINYINT and YEAR type columns (these should be 'BIT', 'TINY' and 'YEAR'

respectively). 

This bug was partly discussed within bug #46533, but that bug is 
generally about another thing. 

Reproduce code:
---------------
$DB=new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=test','anyone','anyone');
$DB->exec('CREATE TABLE `test`(
         `bit` bit(1)
        ,`tinyint` tinyint
        ,`year` year)');
$DB->exec('INSERT INTO `test` VALUES(1,1,2000)');
$statement=$DB->query('SELECT `bit`,`tinyint`,`year` FROM `test`');
$bit=$statement->getColumnMeta(0);
$tinyint=$statement->getColumnMeta(1);
$year=$statement->getColumnMeta(2);
var_dump(isset($bit['native_type']),isset($tinyint['native_type']),isset($year['native_type']));

Expected result:
----------------
bool(true) bool(true) bool(true)

Actual result:
--------------
bool(false) bool(false) bool(false)
