not sure if it's php/mysqli... but if you check the php.net for the "mysqli" not "mysql" functions... you won't see the persistent attribute listed for the php.ini attributes...
I wouldn't worry too much about that though. I mean if persistant connections are required for transactions, I'm sure it will be there. The only reason we may not be seeing it now is because the PHP5 documentation is full of holes (with it not being a production release yet). I know of a few items that are available in PHP5 that aren't documented on php.net yet.
