It's hard-coded in the driver to return false.

My guess is that this is because the driver doesn't comply with some detail of
the JDBC or SQL specifications regarding stored procedures.  It's best to be
very strict about claiming support for a feature when there are work-arounds
involved for not really conforming.  Obviously, stored procedures by
themselves are supported.

The comment there talks about "stored procedure calls using the stored
procedure escape syntax".  Not sure what that's referring to...
