open a file that already existed. The problem was that end_io_cache()
was called even if init_io_cache() was not. This affected both
OUTFILE and DUMPFILE (both fixed). Sometimes wrongly aligned pointer was freed,
sometimes mysqld core dumped.
Other problem was that select_dump::send_error removed the dumpfile,
even if it was created by an earlier run, or by some other program, if
the file permissions just permitted it. Fixed it so that the file will
only be deleted, if an error occurred, but the file was created by mysqld
just a moment ago, in that thread.
On the other hand, select_export did not handle the corresponding garbage
file at all. Both fixed.
After these fixes, a big part of the select_export::prepare and select_dump::prepare
code became identical. Merged the code into a new function called create_file(),
which is now called by the two latter functions.

- Fixed Bug#2346
- Fixed Bug#2378
- Fixed bug in pager (no Bug#ID (?))
- Added support for new special situations option type, GET_DISABLED.
See handling of --debug in mysql.cc. compiled wihtout debugging, as an
example.
Cleaned up embedded library access and query cache handling
Changed min stack size to 128K (to allow longer MyISAM keys)
Fixed wrong priority for XOR (should be less than NEG to get -1^1 to work)
Fixed problem with char > 128 in QUOTE() function. (Bug #1868)
Disable creation of symlinks if my_disable_symlink is set
Fixed searching of TEXT with end space. (Bug #1651)
Fixed caching bug in multi-table-update where same table was used twice. (Bug #1711)
Fixed problem with UNIX_TIMESTAMP() for timestamps close to 0. (Bug #1998)
Fixed timestamp.test
"SHOW TABLE STATUS very slow w/large number of tables"
Replaced old algorithm which were used in my_dir() and stored
all information about directory entries in one chunk of memory
with new one which stores file names and MY_STAT structures in
separate memroot, so now we don't need to copy this data during
reallocation of dir_entry array.
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.
Free thread keys with pthread_key_delete() instead of relying on automatic free. (Bug #2062)
Fixed bug in UNION statement with alias '*'. (Bug #1249)
Fixed a bug in DELETE ... ORDER BY ... LIMIT where the rows where not deleted in the proper order. (Bug #1024).
FOUND_ROWS() could return incorrect number of rows after a query with an impossible WHERE condition.
HOW DATABASES doesn't anymore show .sym files (on windows) that doesn't point to a valid directory. (Bug #1385)
This bug happens under Windows & Embedded server
Reason is that pthread_self() always returns NULL in this case.
This confuses thr_lock function and it doesn't stop
thread inserting in the write-locked table.
Global problem is that there's no way under Windows to get
unique thread handle for working thread.
Monty made a workaround for server - we store the thread's handle
we get when we create thread in the thread-specific variable.
This doesn't work with the embedded library for we don't control
thread creation there.
I added code that sets CurrentThreadId as the pthread_self
for the embedded library.
It seems to solve problem because it's unique and we don't use
pthread_self as a parameter for thread functions in embedded library.
Fixed compiler warnings (a lot of hidden variables detected by the Forte compiler)
Added a lot of 'version_xxx' strings to 'show variables'
Prevent copying of TMP_TABLE_PARAM (This caused core dump bug on Solaris)
Fixed problem with printing sub selects to debug log
New multi-key-cache handling. This was needed becasue the old one didn't work reliable with MERGE tables.
ALTER TABLE table_name ... CHARACTER SET ... now changes all char/varchar/text columns to the given character set
(One must use ALTER TABLE ... DEFAULT CHARACTER SET ... to change the default character set)
Fixed that have_compress is detected properly (fixes problems with func_compress.test on platforms without zlib)
New syntax for CACHE INDEX ('keys' is optional if no index name is given and one mentions the key cache name only ones)
Removed compiler warnings
Added mysql_set_server_option() to allow clients like PHP to easaily set/reset the multi-statement flag.
