vBulletin can be hacked to support other databases. All of the queries are in an external file if I recall. A few changes and you can support other databases.

Makes me wonder if supporting other databases was one of the orignal goals of vB3 but then put off for a later version. Perhaps this is how the devs plan to port vB to other databases.

The queries are throughout the code, hence why no official support for other RDBMSs. The database class is an extra file, however. Changing the class would not fix all the issues of switching to another RDBMS, as most queries are optimized specifically for MySQL, and therefore, you would need to go through most of the files and change the queries.
