like number-to-string-convertion-result, now

thread character set. This makes it easy to be
SQL99 conformant and 4.0 compatible.

Item->thd_charset() is renamed to Item->default_charset()

  Produce an error when a field collation and charset are not compatible

SELECT latin1_expr COLLATE anpther_charset_collation

so that it has fetched the most from the master's binlog before the master
accidently dies. SCRUM task #756.

Added options reconnect/enable-reconnect/disable-reconnect/skip-reconnect to the 'mysql' command-line client.
Disabling can be safer when the server silently dies & restarts.

  Typo fix.

  Portability fix. GetLongPathName is not supported by Windows95.

  Collation cast change coercibility to EXPLICIT

   Coercibility, initial stage
item_func.h:
  Coercibility, initial stage

  Added tests for extended max/min optimization
opt_sum.cc:
  Extended min/max optimization

  Insert constants with an explicit character set

  Fix according test change

  rename len -> length, to look in common style
