Comment (by johnjamesjacoby):

 [https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/6346/6346.02.patch
 6346.02.patch] is a more conservative approach that we can easily roll
 into 2.3 today, and it silences our `dbDelta()` issues.

 I'm going to commit the `02` patch immediately because:
 * I'm really sick of seeing the notices in my logs
 * It is extremely low risk – see: almost none – WordPress core confidently
 did this, so I believe we can also
 * It lets us work towards more schema tweaks proposed in the `01` patch
