Well, I did test it. But it is a complex migration because the database
layout and key state representation changed radically. Unfortunately I
can only test a subset of every imaginable situation in my lifetime.

It is true (my impression) that most people run OpenDNSSEC with SQLite
and the migration script was initially developed (and mostly tested for
corner cases and such) for SQLite and later adapted for MySQL. Same
database layout, slightly different SQL dialect.
In that process there was an oversight of some SQL dialect issues, like
the comment syntax. But depending on your MySQL version /and/ the
contents of your database this may or may not be a problem. It wasn't
for me at the time and went undetected.
