First time I hear about this.
According to this:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/connector-net-connection-options.html
there is an Allow Zero Datetime option. According to Melanie, it looks 
like we need to add it to the connection string.

Edit your MyWorld.ini; your connection string should look like:
ConnectionString = "Data Source=localhost;Database=opensim;User 
ID=opensim;Password=***;Old Guids=true;|Allow Zero Datetime=true;|"

(don't forget the last ';')

Let me know if that solves the problem, and I'll add it to the default 
connection string in the next release. Also in OpenSim inis.
