We don't set null_value to 0 in the Item_func_compress::val_str() for 
not-NULL results.

Fix warning about value from "*ptr++" not being used. Changed it to ptr++ 

MOve DBUG_ASSERT(result_file_name) to after DBUG_ENTER
Change type of "reconnect" variable from int to my_bool, reconnect didn't work on Solaris without that

Add DBUG_PRINT to show the value of mysql->reconnect

'run_testcase_need_master/slave_restart'
Remove the faulty qw
Only look for mysql_fix_privilege_tables if not windows

to run the whole testcase to find wich testcases need to be checked more carefully
and the just "copy and paste" the suspicious test case names to 
a new mysql-test-run.pl command. 

vsnprintf is not available on win2003-x86 host, as this is just a debug functionality - disable it for now.

When looking for client binary directories it necessary to look for the one s that are "deep down" first.

Make the mysqld_variables hash global so it can be used throughout the program 

strcmp -> strncmp

Improve sort algorithm for reorder, all test with smae name except for ending digit should be run after each other. 
Example of that is ndb_autodiscover[1-3]

Two implementations of "get_err_code_from_name", one use if mysqld_ername.h is available and oe if it's not
Declare "to_ptr" first in block 

Fix problem with specifying vardir, mysql_version_id was not yet available when vardir arguments is checked
Move the code to look for exe_mysqld earlier => to initial_setup
Fix warnings detected by running with "diagnostics"
Remove unused option "opt_result_ext"
Init "path_ndb_examples_dir"

into  neptunus.(none):/home/msvensson/mysql/mysql-4.1-maint

the "mysqld --version" command will print "/path/.libs/lt-mysqld  Ver x.x.x"

into  neptunus.(none):/home/msvensson/mysql/mysql-4.1-maint

Improve 'run_testcase_need_slave_restart' to detect if a slave restart really is necessary. 
So far all rpl test requires a slave restart, but for all other tests it can be skipped
Improve the sort order used by --reorder

Move call f dunction into "initialize_servers" so it's called also
in stress and bench mode

Cleanup .progress, .reject, .log and .warnings files produced by mysqltest

creating an environment variable is handled directly from the perl code.  

but having it on tmpfs gives a big speedup.
