Added --max-connections= argument to mysqltest and mtr
Small fix to first patch: forgot to check before free'ing connections array

Some logic would group by suite always
Disable this if using --noreorder
Also fix getting array from collect_one_suite() in this case
Amended according to previous comment

Add --user=root to collect_mysqld_features() if running as root
Please disregard previous commit; this is much simpler.

Made mtr's sleep function understand $variables
A few fixes since previous patch, added tests

fixing bug#50950.

                in message printed at end of configure

New text for the success message of "configure".

Added remove_files_wildcard that allows to remove multiple files at once.
This is a port of original patch to Windows.

Too complex/risky to try to fix
Instead, detect the problem and communicate that this is not supported

write()/read()

Sometimes stop/restart master or stop/restart salve can cause
network error, which can cause the 'invalid file descriptor
-1 in syscall write()/read()' warnings. All involved test
cases except rpl_slave_load_remove_tmpfile belong to the
kind of network error. So they are expected.
The 'rpl_slave_load_remove_tmpfile' belongs to file error,
but it is testing the file error as following code:
DBUG_EXECUTE_IF("remove_slave_load_file_before_write",
my_close(fd,MYF(0)); fd= -1; my_delete(fname, MYF(0)););
So it's expected too.

To fix the problem, add the valgrind warnings to the global
suppression list to suppress it.

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.

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).

resulution of bug #46895.

            REVOKE/GRANT; ALTER EVENT.

The following statements support the CURRENT_USER() where a user is needed.
  DROP USER 
  RENAME USER CURRENT_USER() ...
  GRANT ... TO CURRENT_USER()
  REVOKE ... FROM CURRENT_USER()
  ALTER DEFINER = CURRENT_USER() EVENT
but, When these statements are binlogged, CURRENT_USER() just is binlogged
as 'CURRENT_USER()', it is not expanded to the real user name. When slave 
executes the log event, 'CURRENT_USER()' is expand to the user of slave 
SQL thread, but SQL thread's user name always NULL. This breaks the replication.

After this patch, All above statements are rewritten when they are binlogged.
The CURRENT_USER() is expanded to the real user's name and host.

Updated the certs to expire on 2015. 
Made sure they work with both yassl and openssl.

column is used for ORDER BY

Problem: filesort isn't meant for null length sort data
(e.g. char(0)), that leads to a server crash.

Fix: disregard sort order if sort data record length is 0 (nothing
to sort).

  in multitable delete/subquery

SQL_BUFFER_RESULT should not have an effect on non-SELECT 
statements according to our documentation.
Fixed by not passing it through to multi-table DELETE (similarly
to how it's done for multi-table UPDATE).

Rename method as to not hide a base.
Reorder attributes initialization.
Remove unused variable.
Rework code to silence a warning due to assignment used as truth value.

merging patches prepared for 5.0 to 5.1-bt. That caused a few changes in the test file

Define env. vars for both timeout settings
Also incorporated 5.0 patch into mtr version 1
