TIMESTAMP columns should be unsigned to preserve compatibility with 4.0
(Or else InnoDB will return different internal TIMESTAMP values when user upgrades to 4.1).
Altough this fix will introduce problems with early 4.1 -> 4.1 upgrades (tables with
TIMESTAMP field should be reloaded using mysqldump) it will allow easy 4.0 -> 4.1
upgrade (which is more important since 4.1 is still beta).
new tests to ensure that prepared statement *really* work
(and that MySQL not picks up some number from arbitrary location
that happens to match the parameter's value)
Note: The following tests fails
- fulltext (Sergei has promised to fix)
- rpl_charset (Guilhem should fix)
- rpl_timezone (Dimitray has promised to fix)
Sanja needs to check out the calling of close_thread_tables() in sp_head.cc
