Quoting from the bug report:
The pstack library has been included in MySQL since version
4.0.0. It's useless and should be removed.
Details: According to its own documentation, pstack only works
on Linux on x86 in 32 bit mode and requires LinuxThreads and a
statically linked binary. It doesn't really support any Linux
from 2003 or later and doesn't work on any other OS.
The --enable-pstack option is thus deprecated and has no effect.
Ensure that fdatasync is properly declared as on Mac OS X, the
function is available but there is no prototype. Also, port a
fix for a warning from the InnoDB plugin over to the builtin.
configure.in:
Check that fdatasync is declared.
mysys/my_sync.c:
Use fdatasync only if it is declared.
storage/innobase/include/ut0dbg.h:
Port over from the plugin a fix for a warning.
Enable the MySQL maintainer-specific development environment
(which add various warning related options to the compiler
flags) if debugging support is enabled.
config/ac-macros/maintainer.m4:
Enable the maintainer mode if debug support is enabled.
configure.in:
Move debug argument to before the maintainer mode check.
Problem: The functions my_like_range_xxx() returned
badly formed maximum strings for Asian character sets,
which made problems for storage engines.
Fix:
- Removed a number my_like_range_xxx() implementations,
which were in fact dumplicate code pieces.
- Using generic my_like_range_mb() instead.
- Setting max_sort_char member properly for Asian character sets
- Adding unittest/strings/strings-t.c,
to test that my_like_range_xxx() return well-formed
min and max strings.
Notes:
- No additional tests in mysql/t/ available.
Old tests cover the affected code well enough.
due to GCC preprocessor change
The problem is that newer GCC versions treats missing headers
as fatal errors. The solution is to use a guard macro to prevent
the inclusion of system headers when checking the ABI with the
C Preprocessor.
Reference: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15638http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44836
Makefile.am:
Define guard macro.
configure.in:
Remove workaround.
include/mysql.h:
Guard the header inclusion.
include/mysql.h.pp:
Header is not included anymore.
Although the C standard mandates that sprintf return the number
of bytes written, some very ancient systems (i.e. SunOS 4)
returned a pointer to the buffer instead. Since these systems
are not supported anymore and are hopefully long dead by now,
simply remove the portability wrapper that dealt with this
discrepancy. The autoconf check was causing trouble with GCC.
Introduce a MySQL maintainer/developer mode that enables
a set of warning options for the C/C++ compiler. This mode
is intended to help improve the overall quality of the code.
The warning options are:
C_WARNINGS="-Wall -Wextra -Wunused -Wwrite-strings -Werror"
CXX_WARNINGS="$C_WARNINGS -Wno-unused-parameter"
Since -Wall is essentially a moving target, autoconf checks
are not run with warning options enabled, in particualr -Werror.
This decision might be revisited in the future. The patch also
fixes a mistake in the makefiles, where automake CXXFLAGS would
be set to CFLAGS.
config/ac-macros/maintainer.m4:
Add a set of default compiler flags used when in maintainer mode.
configure.in:
Hook into the maintainer mode. Disabled by default.
Apart strict-aliasing warnings, fix the remaining warnings
generated by GCC 4.4.4 -Wall and -Wextra flags.
One major source of warnings was the in-house function my_bcmp
which (unconventionally) took pointers to unsigned characters
as the byte sequences to be compared. Since my_bcmp and bcmp
are deprecated functions whose only difference with memcmp is
the return value, every use of the function is replaced with
memcmp as the special return value wasn't actually being used
by any caller.
There were also various other warnings, mostly due to type
mismatches, missing return values, missing prototypes, dead
code (unreachable) and ignored return values.
BUILD/SETUP.sh:
Remove flags that are implied by -Wall and -Wextra.
Do not warn about unused parameters in C++.
BUILD/check-cpu:
Print only the compiler version instead of verbose banner.
Although the option is gcc specific, the check was only
being used for GCC specific checks anyway.
client/mysql.cc:
bcmp is no longer defined.
client/mysqltest.cc:
Pass a string to function expecting a format string.
Replace use of bcmp with memcmp.

Required to make certain prototypes visible.

Use appropriate type.
extra/replace.c:
Replace use of bcmp with memcmp.
extra/yassl/src/crypto_wrapper.cpp:
Do not ignore the return value of fgets. Retrieve the file
position if fgets succeed -- if it fails, the function will
bail out and return a error.
extra/yassl/taocrypt/include/blowfish.hpp:
Use a single array instead of accessing positions of the sbox_
through a subscript to pbox_.
extra/yassl/taocrypt/include/runtime.hpp:
One definition of such functions is enough.
extra/yassl/taocrypt/src/aes.cpp:
Avoid potentially ambiguous conditions.
extra/yassl/taocrypt/src/algebra.cpp:
Rename arguments to avoid shadowing related warnings.
extra/yassl/taocrypt/src/blowfish.cpp:
Avoid potentially ambiguous conditions.
extra/yassl/taocrypt/src/integer.cpp:
Do not define type within a anonymous union.
Use a variable to return a value instead of
leaving the result in a register -- compiler
does not know the logic inside the asm.
extra/yassl/taocrypt/src/misc.cpp:
Define handler for pure virtual functions.
Remove unused code.
extra/yassl/taocrypt/src/twofish.cpp:
Avoid potentially ambiguous conditions.
extra/yassl/testsuite/test.hpp:
Function must have C language linkage.
include/m_string.h:
Remove check which relied on bcmp being defined -- they weren't
being used as bcmp is only visible when _BSD_SOURCE is defined.

Replace use of bmove_align with memcpy.
storage/innobase/os/os0file.c:

and .tar.gz, windows vs linux..
On Intel x86 machines index selection by the MySQL query
optimizer could sometimes depend on the compiler version and
optimization flags used to build the server binary.
The problem was a result of a known issue with floating point
calculations on x86: since internal FPU precision (80 bit)
differs from precision used by programs (32-bit float or 64-bit
double), the result of calculating a complex expression may
depend on how FPU registers are allocated by the compiler and
whether intermediate values are spilled from FPU to memory. In
this particular case compiler versions and optimization flags
had an effect on cost calculation when choosing the best index
in best_access_path().
A possible solution to this problem which has already been
implemented in mysql-trunk is to limit FPU internal precision
to 64 bits. So the fix is a backport of the relevant code to
5.1 from mysql-trunk.
configure.in:
Configure check for fpu_control.h

Test case for bug #48537.
mysql-test/t/explain.test:

sql/mysqld.cc:
Backport of the code to switch FPU on x86 to 64-bit precision.
BUILD/*: Add valgrind_configs=--with-valgrind.
BUILD/*: Remove -USAFEMALLOC from valgrind_flags.
configure.in: Add AC_ARG_WITH(valgrind) and HAVE_VALGRIND.
include/my_sys.h: Define a number of MEM_ wrappers for VALGRIND_ functions.
include/my_sys.h: Make TRASH do MEM_UNDEFINED().
include/m_string.h: Remove unused macro bzero_if_purify(A,B).
_mymalloc(): Declare MEM_UNDEFINED() on the allocated memory.
_myfree(): Declare MEM_NOACCESS() on the freed memory.
storage/innobase/include/univ.i: Enable UNIV_DEBUG_VALGRIND based on
HAVE_VALGRIND rather than HAVE_purify.
Possible things to do:
* In my_global.h, remove the defined(HAVE_purify) condition
from the _WIN32 uint3korr().
* In my_global.h *int*korr(), use | instead of +
in order to keep the Valgrind V bits accurate
* Consider replacing HAVE_purify with HAVE_VALGRIND
* Use VALGRIND_CREATE_BLOCK, VALGRIND_DISCARD in mem_root and similar places
in message printed at end of configure

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.
printstack() being present
When Bug#47391 was fixed, no assumption was made that support
for Solaris 8 was needed. Solaris 8 lacks printstack(), and
the build breaks because of this.
This patch adds a test for the presence of printstack() to
configure.in for 5.0, and uses HAVE_PRINTSTACK to make
decisions rather than the __sun define.
