path names than 99 characters, using the USTAR format of the
resulting source TAR.

To be able to specify the use of USTAR when creating the source
TAR, we needed both to update the GNU autotools version requirements
slightly, and update the initiation of the tools to use more
modern constructs.

If not,  write warning and disable signing

Also, set SIGNCODE in mysql_release build configuration.

  fulltext search and row op.

The search for fulltext indexes is searching for some special 
predicate layouts. While doing so it's not checking for the number
of columns of the expressions it tries to calculate.
And since row expressions can't return a single scalar value there
was a crash.
Fixed by checking if the expressions are scalar (in addition to 
being constant) before calling Item::val_xxx() methods.

--default-character-set and --character-set-server such
that only the first will give a deprecation warning.
Apart from that, the two options should do the same.

The test case rpl_binlog_corruption fails on windows because when
adding a line to the binary log index file it gets terminated
with a CR+LF (which btw, is the normal case in windows, but not on
Unixes - LF). This causes mismatch between the relay log names,
causing mysqld to report that it cannot find the log file.

We fix this by creating the instrumented index file through
mysql, ie, using SELECT ... INTO DUMPFILE ..., as opposed on
relying on ultimatly OS commands like: -- echo "..." >
index. These changes go into the file and make the procedure
platform independent:

  include/setup_fake_relay_log.inc

Side note: when using SELECT ... INTO DUMPFILE ..., one needs to
check if mysqld is running with secure_file_priv. If it is, we do
it in two steps: 1. create the file on the allowed location;
2. move it to the datadir. If it is not, then we just create the
file directly on the datadir (so previous step 2. is not needed).
