The problem was that when converting a string to an exact number,
rounding didn't work, because conversion didn't understand
approximate numbers notation.
Fix: a new function for string-to-number conversion was implemented,
which is aware of approxinate number notation (with decimal point
and exponent, e.g. -19.55e-1)
It was impossible to create some table names on Windows
(e.g. LPT1, AUX, COM1, etc).
Fixed to pad dangerous names with thee "at" signs
(e.g. LPT1@@@, AUX@@@, COM1@@@, and so on).
A prerequisite for several fulltext and XML bugs.
MY_CHARSET_HANDLER now has a new function "ctype"
to detect a type of the next character in a string
(i.e. digit, letter, space, punctuation, control, etc),
which now works correctly for both 8bit and multibyte charsets.
Previously only 8bit charsets worked correctly,
while any multibyte character was considered as letter
in multibyte charsets.

Adding new function
Makefile.am:
Adding build rules for uctypedump,
a dump tool to create my_uctype.h
using Unicode Character Database file.
m_ctype.h:
Adding declaration of my_uni_ctype,
ctype data for Unicode.
Adding new member into MY_CHARSET_HANDLER

ctype data for unicode,

a Unicode Character Database file.
Don't display charsets/collations with HIDDEN flag.
ctype-utf8.c:
Adding HIDDEN flag to "filename"
Changeing ID to 17 which was previosly
used by deprecated "win1251", removed in 4.1.
charset-def.c:
Adding "filename" as a hidden charset, for test purposes.
m_ctype.h:
Adding MY_CS_HIDDEN flag,
to hide charsets and collations from
being displayed in SHOW.
- Encoding itself, implemented as a charset
"filename". Originally planned to use '.'
as an escape character, but now changed to '@'
for two reasons: "ls" does not return
file names starting with '.' considering them
as a kind of hidden files; some platforms
do not allow several dots in a file name.
- replacing many calls of my_snprintf() and
strnxmov() to the new build_table_filename().
- Adding MY_APPEND_EXT mysys flag, to append
an extention rather that replace it.
- Replacing all numeric constants in fn_format
flag arguments to their mysys definitions, e.g.
MY_UNPACK_FILENAME,
- Predictability in several function/methods:
when a table name can appear with or withot .frm
extension. Some functions/methods were changed
so accept names strictly with .frm, other - strictly
without .frm extensions. Several DBUG_ASSERTs were
added to check whether an extension is passed.

New strnxfrm, with two trailing length bytes.
field.cc:
Adding true BINARY/VARBINARY.
In cp932, '\' character can be the second byte in a
multi-byte character stream. This makes it difficult to use
mysql_escape_string. Added flag to indicate which languages allow
'\' as second byte of multibyte sequence so that when putting a prepared
statement into the binlog we can decide at runtime whether hex encoding
is really needed.

The same fix for UCS2.

Bug #9557
MyISAM utf8 table crash
The problem was that my_strnncollsp_xxx could
return big value in the range 0..0xffff.
for some constant pairs it could return 32738,
which is defined as MI_FOUND_WRONG_KEY in
myisamdef.h. As a result, table considered to
be crashed.
Fix to return -1,0 or 1.
UPPER/LOWER now can return a string with different length.
mi_test1.c:
Adding new arguments.
Many files:
Changeing caseup/casedn to return a result with different
length than argument.
sql_string.h:
Removing unused method,
mysql_priv.h:
Removing unused method
Windows to call CreateFileMapping() with correct arguments, and
propogating the introduction of query_id_t to everywhere query ids are
passed around. (Bug #8826)
Renamed HA_VAR_LENGTH to HA_VAR_LENGTH_PART
Renamed in all files FIELD_TYPE_STRING and FIELD_TYPE_VAR_STRING to MYSQL_TYPE_STRING and MYSQL_TYPE_VAR_STRING to make it easy to catch all possible errors
Added support for VARCHAR KEYS to heap
Removed support for ISAM
Now only long VARCHAR columns are changed to TEXT on demand (not CHAR)
Internal temporary files can now use fixed length tables if the used VARCHAR columns are short
