Description:
seems to be that the compare between date() result and is null operator doesnt work like supoused

How to repeat:
when i execute the query :
"select date(concat("2008","-","13","-","31"))"
the result is one row with a "NULL" value

but, when i execute
"select date(concat("2008","-","13","-","31")) is null"
the result is one row with a "0" value

Suggested fix:
return a "1" when NULL is NULL would be ok

Thank you for the report.

I can not repeat described behavior with latest versions, although bug is repeatable in version 5.0.27.
