If you use MySQL there is no need to activate dbal. Dbal is needed if 
you use other DBMS or if you want to have tables in a second MySQL server.

Dbal overrides some of the core functions to provide support for other 
DBMS, but this is done in a way that extensions (if they use DBAL 
compatible queries) and the rest of the core don't notice the difference.
