The SQL standard doesn't allow to use in HAVING clause fields that are not
present in GROUP BY clause and not under any aggregate function in the HAVING
clause. However, mysql allows using such fields. This extension assume that
the non-grouping fields will have the same group-wise values. Otherwise, the
result will be unpredictable. This extension allowed in strict
MODE_ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY sql mode results in misunderstanding of HAVING
capabilities.
The new error message ER_NON_GROUPING_FIELD_USED message is added. It says
"non-grouping field '%-.64s' is used in %-.64s clause". This message is
supposed to be used for reporting errors when some field is not found in the
GROUP BY clause but have to be present there. Use cases for this message are
this bug and when a field is present in a SELECT item list not under any
aggregate function and there is GROUP BY clause present which doesn't mention
that field. It renders the ER_WRONG_FIELD_WITH_GROUP error message obsolete as
being more descriptive.
The resolve_ref_in_select_and_group() function now reports the
ER_NON_GROUPING_FIELD_FOUND error if the strict mode is set and the field for
HAVING clause is found in the SELECT item list only.

and new binlog format called "mixed" (which is statement-based except if only row-based is correct,
in this cset it means if UDF or UUID is used; more cases could be added in later 5.1 release):
SET GLOBAL|SESSION BINLOG_FORMAT=row|statement|mixed|default;
the global default is statement unless cluster is enabled (then it's row) as in 5.1-alpha.
It's not possible to use SET on this variable if a session is currently in row-based mode and has open temporary tables (because CREATE
TEMPORARY TABLE was not binlogged so temp table is not known on slave), or if NDB is enabled (because
NDB does not support such change on-the-fly, though it will later), of if in a stored function (see below).
The added tests test the possibility or impossibility to SET, their effects, and the mixed mode,
including in prepared statements and in stored procedures and functions.
Caveats:
a) The mixed mode will not work for stored functions: in mixed mode, a stored function will
always be binlogged as one call and in a statement-based way (e.g. INSERT VALUES(myfunc()) or SELECT myfunc()).
b) for the same reason, changing the thread's binlog format inside a stored function is
refused with an error message.
c) the same problems apply to triggers; implementing b) for triggers will be done later (will ask
Dmitri).
Additionally, as the binlog format is now changeable by each user for his session, I remove the implication
which was done at startup, where row-based automatically set log-bin-trust-routine-creators to 1
(not possible anymore as a user can now switch to stmt-based and do nasty things again), and automatically
set --innodb-locks-unsafe-for-binlog to 1 (was anyway theoretically incorrect as it disabled
phantom protection).
Plus fixes for compiler warnings.
Check if AGGREGATE was given with a stored (non-UDF) function, and return
error in that case.
Also made udf_example/udf_test work again, by adding a missing *_init()
function. (_init() functions required unless --allow_suspicious_udfs is
given to the server, since March 2005 - it seems udf_example wasn't updated
at the time.)
