When CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE .. SELECT is invoked from a stored function
which in turn is called from CREATE TABLE SELECT causes a memory leak
because the inner create temporary table overrides the outter extra_lock
reference when locking the table.
The solution is to simply not overrride the extra_lock by only using the
extra_lock for a non-temporary table lock.
insert_id after succ. mysql_change_user() call.

This bug reveals two problems:
- the problem on the client side which was described originally;
- the problem in protocol / the server side: connection context
on client and server should be like after mysql_real_connect()
and be consistent. The server however just resets character
set variables to the global defaults.
The fix seems to be as follows:
- extend the protocol so that the client be able to send
character set information in COM_CHANGE_USER command;
- change the server so that it understands client character set
in the command;
- change the client:
- reset character set to the default value (which has been
read from the configuration);
- send character set in COM_CHANGE_USER command.
The NAME_CONST function is required to work correctly with constants only.
When executed with functions that return types other than those returned by
Item::field_type (string, int, decimal, or real), the result gets cast to
one of those types. This cannot happen for constants.
Fixed by only allowing constants as arguments to NAME_CONST.
When calculating the result length of an integer DIV function
the number of decimals was used without checking the result type
first. Thus an uninitialized number of decimals was used for some
types. This caused an excessive amount of memory to be allocated
for the field's buffer and crashed the server.
Fixed by using the number of decimals only for data types that
can have decimals and thus have valid decimals number.
The optimizer takes different execution paths during EXPLAIN than SELECT,
this fix relates only to EXPLAIN, hence no behavior changes.
The test of sort keys for ORDER BY was prohibited from considering keys
that were mentioned in IGNORE KEYS FOR ORDER BY. This led to two
inconsistencies: One was that IGNORE INDEX FOR GROUP BY and
IGNORE INDEX FOR ORDER BY gave apparently different EXPLAINs; the latter
erroneously claimed to do filesort. The second inconsistency
is that the test of sort keys is called twice, finding a sort key the first
time but not the second time, leading to the mentioned filesort.
Fixed by making the test of sort keys consider all enabled
keys on the table. This test rejects keys that are not covering, and for
covering keys the hint should be ignored anyway.
When expanding a * in a USING/NATURAL join the check for table access
for both tables in the join was done using the grant information of the
first one.
Fixed by getting the grant information for the current table while
iterating through the columns of the join.
Always include all sub directories in "make dist"
Removed incorrect comment
configure.in:
Unconditionally list make files in AC_CONFIG_FILES
Removed 'thread_dirs', it is not used
Minor cleanup
compile-dist:
Simplified the configure line needed for "make dist" to get it all
zlib.m4, ssl.m4:
Unconditionally list make files in AC_CONFIG_FILES
Makefile.am:
Removed DIST_SUBDIRS not needed
Don't copy soft links as files into source package
The `SELECT col FROM t WHERE col NOT IN (col, ...) GROUP BY col'
crashed in the range optimizer.
The get_func_mm_tree function has been modified to check the
Item_func_in::array field for the NULL value before using of that
value.
When storing the VIEW the CREATE VIEW command is reconstructed
from the parse tree. While constructing the command string
the index hints specified should also be printed.
Fixed by adding code to print the index hints when printing a
table in the FROM clause.
