- 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.

Ensure that ccache is also used for C programs
mysql: Ensure that 'delimiter' works the same way in batch mode as in normal mode
mysqldump: Change to use ;; (instead of //) as a stored procedure/trigger delimiter
Fixed test cases by adding missing DROP's and rename views to be of type 'v#'
Removed MY_UNIX_PATH from fn_format()
Removed current_db_used from TABLE_LIST
Removed usage of 'current_thd' in Item_splocal
Removed some compiler warnings
A bit faster longlong2str code

To enable full access to contents of I_S tables from stored functions
or statements that use them, we manipulate with thread's open tables
state and ensure that we won't cause deadlock when we open tables by
ignoring flushes and name-locks.
Building of contents of I_S.TABLES no longer requires locking of tables
since we use use handler::info() method with HA_STATUS_AUTO flag instead
of handler::update_auto_increment() for obtaining information about
auto-increment values. But this also means that handlers have to implement
support for HA_STATUS_AUTO flag (particularly InnoDB needs it).
Count null_bits separately from field offsets and adjust them in case of primary key parts.
(Previously a CREATE TABLE with a lot of null fields that was part of a primary key caused MySQL to wrongly count the number of bytes needed to store null bits)
This is a more complete bug fix for #6236
Bug #6479 ALTER TABLE ... changing charset fails for TEXT columns
Fix: use do_conv_blob rather than do_copy_blob
if the column's character sets are different.
More tests.
Better error messages.
Fixed bug when checking if we updated all needed columns for INSERT.
Give an error if we encounter a wrong float value during parsing.
Don't print DEFAULT for columns without a default value in SHOW CREATE/SHOW FIELDS.
Fixed UPDATE IGNORE when using STRICT mode.
and for (2) converting the columns:
1. ALTER TABLE t1 [DEFAULT] CHARACTER SET xxx [COLLATE yyy]
2. ALTER TABLE t1 CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET xxx [COLLATE yyy]
BINARY(N) and VARBIBARY(N)
2. More 4.0 compatibility and more BINARY keyword consistency:
2a. CREATE TABLE a (a CHAR(N) BINARY)
is now synonym for
CREATE TABLE a (a CHAR(N) COLLATE xxxx_bin)
2b. SELECT BINARY x
is still synonin for
SELECT x COLLATE xxxxx_bin.
