created for sorting. Any outer reference in a subquery was represented by an Item_field object. If the outer select employs a temporary table all such fields should be replaced with fields from that temporary table in order to point to the actual data. This replacement wasn't done and that resulted in a wrong subquery evaluation and a wrong result of the whole query. Now any outer field is represented by two objects - Item_field placed in the outer select and Item_outer_ref in the subquery. Item_field object is processed as a normal field and the reference to it is saved in the ref_pointer_array. Thus the Item_outer_ref is always references the correct field. The original field is substituted for a reference in the Item_field::fix_outer_field() function. New function called fix_inner_refs() is added to fix fields referenced from inner selects and to fix references (Item_ref objects) to these fields. The new Item_outer_ref class is a descendant of the Item_direct_ref class. It additionally stores a reference to the original field and designed to behave more like a field.
