positive numbers when no resultset is available": when sending
result set metadata we need to use virtual select_result::send_fields, 
and not address protocol directly, because select_result descendents may 
intercept result set (it's the case for example for SELECT INTO OUTFILE).

  Change @image argument parsing.

test for bug#1180 changed to table naming scheme 't#'.

  Tagged ChangeSet 1.2091 as mysql-4.1.6
configure.in:
  Updated version string to 4.1.7

let's not assume that char is signed (its signedness is not defined).
The server was also affected by the wrong typedef.

 Fix for Bug#6025 "Test "client_test" fails in 4.1.6-gamma build (2)".
 No need for a test case, the bug is covered already.

  Fix a typo. Cleanup.

crashes server." The fix makes Item_func_rand prepared-statements
aware plus it fixes the case when RAND is used in prepared
statements and replication is on (as well as several similar issues).
Until now we did not reset THD before every execution of a prepared
statement, so if some execution had set thd->time_zone_used
or thd->rand_used they would not be reset until next mysql_parse.
Some of post-review fixes done.

BUG#4335 - one name can be handler open'ed many times.
Fixed problems detected on Windows build by VC++.
Removed unused variables.
Applied a neccessary cast.

  Make checks (asserts) performed in client_test.c work in non-debug
  builds.

(bad merge from 4.0)

  Added catch for (example) WL#1234 into bk commit subjects

propogation works only once (prepared statements)".

- 'ps_10nestset' uses a "nested set" approach for an employee 
  hierarchy, then does arithmetic on the "salary" field;
  (soon) to be extended by inserts / deletes which imply
  mass updates on the "l"/"r" fields showing the set inclusion,
- 'ps_11bugs' will get (some of ?) those bug DB entries which
  refer to prepared statements, but whose number does not appear
  in a test file comment - so it will also be extended.

  A fix for Bug#6042 "constants propogation works olny once (prepared
  statements)": reset item->marker in Item::cleanup, as it's used
  in propogate_cond_constants. No test case as the only way I could
  come up with to show the problem is EXPLAIN, and EXPLAIN is painful
  to use in the test suite.
