Anyway, if the patches usually work without modification, why doesn't SQLite just use the same patches as MySQL, with special-casing for exceptions? Even if the status quo were documented (it's not), it's not ideal to expect people who never use SQLite to go out of their way and take extra steps to keep it up-to-date.
SQLite actually shares some patches with MySQL, and the whole approach is documented at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Database_access#SQLite_compatibility
