How mature is PDO for PHP 5.2.13 for a serious project?

(By serious I mean a script that is going to be sold and deployed in different platforms and environments. Something not serious would be for testing or developing, in this case)

Currently, most host companies are running PHP 5.2.13 and adoption for 5.3.x seems too far away...

So I'd like to know, in your own experience, if PDO is safe to use in the current PHP version. I've done some test several months ago but it had some unacceptable bugs for a production environment.

Is it safer to go with mysqli instead? I'm not planning support for multiple databases right now, so that's not a problem (for now).
