Visual Studio 2008 Express edition does not include message compiler mc.exe
It is not possible to build MySQL server if only VC2008 Express is installed,
because we use mc.exe to generate event log messages.

This patch removes the mc.exe dependency. Generated files message.h, 
message.rc and MSG00001.bin  are checked into source code repository.
Instructions on how to add or change messages are added to messages.mc

mysql-test/r/xa.result:
  Update test case result.
mysql-test/t/xa.test:
  Drop table used for test.

The problem was that the server did not robustly handle a
unilateral roll back issued by the Resource Manager (RM)
due to a resource deadlock within the transaction branch.
By not acknowledging the roll back, the server (TM) would
eventually corrupt the XA transaction state and crash.

The solution is to mark the transaction as rollback-only
if the RM indicates that it rolled back its branch of the
transaction.

Server crashed during a sort order optimization
of a dependent subquery:

SELECT
    (SELECT t1.a FROM t1, t2
      WHERE t1.a = t2.b AND t2.a = t3.c
      ORDER BY t1.a)
  FROM t3;


Bitmap of tables, that the reference to outer table
column uses, in addition to the regular table bit
has the OUTER_REF_TABLE_BIT bit set.
The only_eq_ref_tables function traverses this map
bit by bit simultaneously with join->map2table list.
Obviously join->map2table never contains an entry
for the OUTER_REF_TABLE_BIT pseudo-table, so the
server crashed there.


The only_eq_ref_tables function has been modified
to traverse regular table bits only like the
update_depend_map function (resetting of the
OUTER_REF_TABLE_BIT there is enough, but
resetting of the whole set of PSEUDO_TABLE_BITS
is used there for sure).

The problem is that the offset argument of the limit clause
might be truncated on a 32-bits server built without big
tables support. The truncation was happening because the
original 64-bits long argument was being cast to a 32-bits
(ha_rows) offset counter.

The solution is to check if the conversing resulted in value
truncation and if so, the offset is set to the maximum possible
value that can fit on the type.

  truncated, set to the maximum possible value.

If delayed insert fails to upgrade the lock it was not
freeing the temporary memory storage used to keep
newly constructed blob values in memory.
Fixed by iterating over the remaining rows in the delayed
insert rowset and freeing the blob storage for each row.

No test suite because it involves concurrent delayed inserts 
on a table and cannot easily be made deterministic. 

Added a correct valgrind suppression for Fedora 9.

sql/sql_insert.cc:
  Bug #38693: free the blobs temp storage on error.

The problem is that field names constructed due to wild-card
expansion done inside a stored procedure could point to freed
memory if the expansion was performed after the first call to
the stored procedure.

The problem was solved by patch for Bug#38691. The solution
was to allocate the database, table and field names in the
in the statement memory instead of table memory.

  Remark that this also impacts wildcard expansion inside SPs.

This time the inclusion of <stdio.h> before "config.h" enabled legacy large
file support, seek64() and similar, on AIX breaking the compile of "gzio.c"

Merge conflicts in test "create:
- for "create.result", handled correctly by "bzr extmerge" (using "kdiff3"),
- for "create.test", not reported as a conflict, but merged wrong
  (new block at the test end got duplicated), fixed manually.

Test on Linux (Debian, PowerPC) was ok.

Select with a "NULL NOT IN" condition containing complex
subselect from the same table as in the outer select failed
with an assertion.


The failure was caused by a concatenation of circumstances:
1) an inner select was optimized by make_join_statistics to use
   the QUICK_RANGE_SELECT access method (that implies an index
   scan of the table);
2) a subselect was independent (constant) from the outer select;
3) a condition was pushed down into inner select.

During the evaluation of a constant IN expression an optimizer
temporary changed the access method from index scan to table
scan, but an engine handler was already initialized for index
access by make_join_statistics. That caused an assertion.


Unnecessary index initialization has been removed from
the QUICK_RANGE_SELECT::init method (QUICK_RANGE_SELECT::reset
reinvokes this initialization).

            with COALESCE and JOIN

The server returned to a client the VARBINARY column type
instead of the DATE type for a result of the COALESCE,
IFNULL, IF, CASE, GREATEST or LEAST functions if that result
was filesorted in an anonymous temporary table during
the query execution.

For example:
  SELECT COALESCE(t1.date1, t2.date2) AS result
    FROM t1 JOIN t2 ON t1.id = t2.id ORDER BY result;


To create a column of various date/time types in a
temporary table the create_tmp_field_from_item() function
uses the Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() method
call. However, fields of the MYSQL_TYPE_NEWDATE type were
missed there, and the VARBINARY columns were created
by default.
Necessary condition has been added.

           derived table cause crash

When a multi-UPDATE command fails to lock some table, and
subsequently succeeds, the tables need to be reopened if
they were altered. But the reopening procedure failed for
derived tables.

Extra cleanup has been added.

When running Stored Routines the Status Variable "Questions" was wrongly
incremented. According to the manual it should contain the "number of
statements that clients have sent to the server"
              
Introduced a new status variable 'questions' to replace the query_id
variable which currently corresponds badly with the number of statements
sent by the client.
            
The new behavior is ment to be backward compatible with 4.0 and at the
same time work with new features in a similar way.
            
This is a backport from 6.0

  To be backward compatible with 4.0 and at the same time extend the 
  interpretation of the Question variable, it should be increased on
  all COM-commands but COM_STATISTICS, COM_PING, COM_STMT_PREPARE,
  COM_STMT_CLOSE and COM_STMT_RESET.
  Since COM_QUERY can process multiple statements, there has to be an
  extra increase there as well.

          ``FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK''

Concurrent execution of 1) multitable update with a
NATURAL/USING join and 2) a such query as "FLUSH TABLES
WITH READ LOCK" or "ALTER TABLE" of updating table led
to a server crash.


The mysql_multi_update_prepare() function call is optimized
to lock updating tables only, so it postpones locking to
the last, and if locking fails, it does cleanup of modified
syntax structures and repeats a query analysis.  However,
that cleanup procedure was incomplete for NATURAL/USING join
syntax data: 1) some Field_item items pointed into freed
table structures, and 2) the TABLE_LIST::join_columns fields
was not reset.

Major change:
  short-living Field *Natural_join_column::table_field has
  been replaced with long-living Item*.

  Bug #38691: segfault/abort in ``UPDATE ...JOIN'' while

  The Item_field constructor has been modified to allocate
  and copy original database/table/field names always (not
  during PS preparation/1st execution only), because
  an initialization of Item_field items with a pointer to
  short-living Field structures is a common practice.
sql/sql_base.cc:

  1) Type adjustment for Natural_join_column::table_field
     (Field to Item_field);
  2) The setup_natural_join_row_types function has been
     updated to take into account new
     first_natural_join_processing flag to skip unnecessary
     reinitialization of Natural_join_column::join_columns
     during table reopening after lock_tables() failure
     (like the 'first_execution' flag for PS).

  Type of the Natural_join_column::table_field field has
  been changed from Field that points into short-living
  TABLE memory to long-living Item_field that can be

The grep expression that finds a running "mysqld" program fails if the
"mysqld_safe" is running with the same PID.

Now, excise "ps" output that has the word " grep" or "mysqld_safe" in 
it, to be a little more certain that the matched process is not a false 
positive hit.  This will fail when the path to mysqld contains either
of those two names, which should be acceptable.

Additionally, some text to search could be truncated if very long.  
Expand the number of lines "ps" emits.

mysql-test-run.pl --start-and-exit starts but does not exit
Instead, it hangs with ActiveState perl. The error is
believed to be a bug in ActiveState implementation.
Workaround is using POSIX::_exit, as described here
http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=334610

Thanks to Philip Stoev for the idea of the patch.
