When the client program had its stdout file descriptor closed by the calling
shell, after some amount of work (enough to fill a socket buffer) the server
would complain about a packet error and then disconnect the client.
This is a serious security problem. If stdout is closed before the mysql is
exec()d, then the first socket() call allocates file number 1 to communicate
with the server. Subsequent write()s to that file number (as when printing
results that come back from the database) go back to the server instead in
the command channel. So, one should be able to craft data which, upon being
selected back from the server to the client, and injected into the command
stream become valid MySQL protocol to do something nasty when sent /back/ to
the server.
The solution is to close explicitly the file descriptor that we *printf() to,
so that the libc layer and the OS layer both agree that the file is closed.

DbtcMain.cpp, testTimeout.cpp:
Bug #11290 TransactionInactiveTimeout = 0 does not result in infinite timeout
Added a test case for bug #11167.
sql_select.cc:
Fixed bug #11167.
In 4.1 char/varchar fields are limited by 255 characters in
length that make them longer than 255 bytes in size for such
character sets as UTF8. The functions store_record_in_cache
and read_cached_records did not take into account this
Moreover the code did not take into account that the size
of the varchar fields in 5.0 can be up to 65535 bytes
Analyze table corrupts the state on
data_file_length, records, index_file_length...
by writing the shared state when there is an updated internal
state due to inserts or deletes
Fixed by synching the shared state with the internal state before
writing it to disk
Added test cases of 2 error cases and a normal case in new
analyze test case
when merging just use "ul"] In configure.in, don't remove $AVAILABLE_LANGUAGES_ERRORS_RULES at end
because config.status may later need this file (if it does not find it
it won't incorporate dependencies of errmsg.sys in sql/share/Makefile).
In sql/share/Makefile.am using "all:" leads to double-"all:" in Makefile.
Added an extra parameter to all calls to timeout().
1 means we want to set the write timeout
0 means we wnat to set the read timeout
viossl.c:
Add which parameter to ssl timeout routine
vio_priv.h:
Added which parameter to vio_ignore_timeout and vio_ssl_timeout
violite.h:
Add which parameter to vio_timeout sigs
net_serv.cc:
Use proper which code in call to vio_timeout to set the proper timeout
viosocket.c:
Set the appropriate timeout in vio_timeout
s/sleep/safe_sleep (thread safe); sleep 0/1/2/3/4/5/5/5 (get slave less late);
no message on error log (deadlock is too common sometimes), a global counter
instead (SHOW STATUS LIKE 'slave_retried_transactions').
Plus a fix for libmysql/Makefile.shared
