mf_pack.c, mf_dirname.c, charset.c, my_sys.h:
- adding fs_character_set() function on Windows
- ignoring fake slashes which are just multibyte
parts in several functions in /mysys
Verified by Shu to work on WinXP and Win2k.
Test is not possible, or very hard to do.
The problem was that on Windows the access method indicates that access to file
such as "com1" and "lpt1" is allowed (since they are device names) and
this causes mysql to attempt to open them as databases or tables.
The fix was to write our own my_access method that uses other Win32 functions
to determine if the given argument is indeed a file and has to requested
mode.
mysql_server_init() now returns error code if something went wrong (Bug #2062)
Don't use my_fopen() when reading symlink information as this may cause problems when a lot of files are opened.
