when InnoDB frm file corruption
Problem: mysqlcheck runs 'SHOW FULL TABLE' queries to get table lists.
The query may fail for some reasons (e.g. null .frm file) then
mysqlcheck doesn't process the database tables.
Fix: try to run 'SHOW TABLES' if 'SHOW FULL TABLES' failed.
mysqldump creates stand-in tables before dumping the actual view.
Those tables were of the default type; if the view had more columns
than that (a pathological case, arguably), loading the dump would
fail. We now make the temporary stand-ins MyISAM tables to prevent
this.
running on Windows
We used two OS-specific methods of looking up the executable
name, which don't work outside of those two kinds of OSes
(Linux+Solaris and Windows).
We assume that if the user ran this program with a certain
name, we can run the other sibling programs with a similar name.

Bug#33812: mysql client incorrectly parsing DELIMITER
Remove unnecessary and incorrect code that tried
to pull delimiter commands out of the middle of
statements.

Adding $MASTER_MYSOCK to init_win_path()
When path names are short, master.sock ends up in MYSQL_TMP_DIR, but with longer path names,
master.sock ends up in /tmp/<random_string>/ and these tests will fail due to path delimiter difference.
New changeset to start with 5.0 -- Not all of these tests are present in 5.0, but want to keep mysqltest the same
When linking with some external programs, "multiple definition
of `init_time'"
Rename init_time() to my_init_time() to avoid collision with other
libraries (particularly libmng).
databases from 4.0 server
mysqldump treated a failure to set the results charset as a severe
error.
Now, don't try to set the charset for the SHOW CREATE TABLE statement,
if remote server's version is earlier than 4.1, which means it
doesn't support changing charsets.
There was no way to return an error from the client library
if no MYSQL connections was established.
So here i added variables to store that king of errors and
made functions like mysql_error(NULL) to return these.
Nothing was in the command-line dictionary, because of the wrong
order of instructions when populating it.
This is a smaller, less optimistic patch that both fixes a bug and
refreshes the list of keywords that the command-line library (e.g.,
readline) can use to expand typed commands. Now, read from the
command list /after/ we free the list, not before.
The best way is to read the keywords from the lexer code, but that
doesn't work everywhere yet. Grr.

Bug#33976: buffer overflow of variable time_buff in function com_go()
An internal buffer was too short. Overextending could smash the
stack on some architectures and cause SEGVs. This is not a problem
that could be exploited to run arbitrary code.
To fix, I expanded one buffer to cover all the size that could be
written to (we know the abolute max).
Bug#25347: mysqlcheck -A -r doesn't repair table marked as crashed
mysqlcheck tests nullness of the engine type to know whether the
"table" is a view or not. That also falsely catches tables that
are severly damaged.
Instead, use SHOW FULL TABLES to test whether a "table" is a view
or not.
(Don't add new function. Instead, get original data a smarter way.)
Make it safe for use against databases before when views appeared.
