Two problems here:
Problem 1:
While constructing the join columns list the optimizer does as follows:
1. Sets the join_using_fields/natural_join members of the right JOIN
operand.
2. Makes a "table reference" (TABLE_LIST) to parent the two tables.
3. Assigns the join_using_fields/is_natural_join of the wrapper table
using join_using_fields/natural_join of the rightmost table
4. Sets join_using_fields to NULL for the right JOIN operand.
5. Passes the parent table up to the same procedure on the upper
level.
Step 1 overrides the the join_using_fields that are set for a nested
join wrapping table in step 4.
Fixed by making a designated variable SELECT_LEX::prev_join_using to
pass the data from step 1 to step 4 without destroying the wrapping
table data.
Problem 2:
The optimizer checks for ambiguous columns while transforming
NATURAL JOIN/JOIN USING to JOIN ON. While doing that there was no
distinction between columns that are used in the generated join
condition (where ambiguity can be checked) and the other columns
(where ambiguity can be checked only when resolving references
coming from outside the JOIN construct itself).
Fixed by allowing the non-USING columns to be present in multiple
copies in both sides of the join and moving the ambiguity check
to the place where unqualified references to the join columns are
resolved (find_field_in_natural_join()).
When a merge table is opened compare column and key definition of
underlying tables against column and key definition of merge table.
If any of underlying tables have different column/key definition
refuse to open merge table.
The optimizer takes away columns from GROUP BY/DISTINCT if they constitute
all the parts of an unique index.
However if some of the columns can contain NULLs this cannot be done
(because an UNIQUE index can have multiple rows with NULL values).
Fixed by not using UNIQUE indexes with nullable columns to remove
grouping columns from GROUP BY/DISTINCT.
Depending on the queries we use different data processing methods
and can lose some data in case of double (and decimal in 4.1) fields.
The fix consists of two parts:
1. double comparison changed, now double a is equal to double b
if (a-b) is less than 5*0.1^(1 + max(a->decimals, b->decimals)).
For example, if a->decimals==1, b->decimals==2, a==b if (a-b)<0.005
2. if we use a temporary table, store double values there as is
to avoid any data conversion (rounding).

Checking for NULL before calling the val_xxx()
methods only checks for such arguments that are
known to be NULLs at compile time.
The arguments that may or may not contain
NULLs (e.g. function calls and possibly others)
are not checked at all.
Fixed by first calling the val_xxx() method and
then checking for null in SEC_TO_TIME().
In addition QUARTER() was not returning 0 (as all the
val_int() functions do when processing a NULL value).
Before this fix, a IN predicate of the form: "IN (( subselect ))", with two
parenthesis, would be evaluated as a single row subselect: if the subselect
returns more that 1 row, the statement would fail.
The SQL:2003 standard defines a special exception in the specification,
and mandates that this particular form of IN predicate shall be equivalent
to "IN ( subselect )", which involves a table subquery and works with more
than 1 row.
This fix implements "IN (( subselect ))", "IN ((( subselect )))" etc
as per the SQL:2003 requirement.
All the details related to the implementation of this change have been
commented in the code, and the relevant sections of the SQL:2003 spec
are given for reference, so they are not repeated here.
Having access to the spec is a requirement to review in depth this patch.
The function that checks whether we can use keys for aggregates,
find_key_for_maxmin(), assumes that keys disabled by ALTER TABLE
... DISABLE KEYS are not in the set table->keys_in_use_for_query.
I.E., if a key is in this set, the optimizer assumes it is free to
use it.
The bug is that keys disabled with ALTER TABLE ... DISABLE KEYS still
appear in table->keys_in_use_for_query When the TABLE object has been
initialized with setup_tables(). Before setup_tables is called, however,
keys that are disabled in the aforementioned way are not included in
TABLE::keys_in_use_for_query.
The provided patch changes the code that updates keys_is_use_for_query so
that it assumes that keys_is_use_for_query already takes into account all
disabled keys, and generally all keys that should be used by the query.
Removed a lot of compiler warnings
Removed not used variables, functions and labels
Initialize some variables that could be used unitialized (fatal bugs)

Objects of the classes Item_func_is_not_null_test and Item_func_trig_cond
must be transparent for the method Item::split_sum_func2 as these classes
are pure helpers. It means that the method Item::split_sum_func2 should
look at those objects as at pure wrappers.
1) Two small windows cleanups for Archive.
2) Patch from Calvin for Falcon to be able to have its own I_S loaded. One example added for this, does hello world.
