initialize plugins earlier, to support, for example, non-MyISAM mysql.plugin table.

(without CFLAGS=-DSAFEMALLOC).

Disable call to setpriority() in pbxt. This caused mysqld to run with nice priority -19, which was far from optimal.

storage/pbxt/src/pthread_xt.cc:
  Disable call to setpriority()

The printing of include stack in the error case in mysqltest omitted the
bottom of the stack (the line number in original test case file), and instead
printed the top of the stack twice. Fix to print each element on the stack
once and only once.

Simplifies handling 5.1 in buildbot.

On Windows, do not attempt access() for special device names like
CON, PRN etc. access() would return 0, this does not mean that fiile
with this name exists.

  Function to test table name presence added.
  Create fixed.

Problem was setting DEBUG_SYNC twice in a row too fast in the test case; this
could cause the second setting to override the first before the code had time
to react to the first, causing the signal to get lost.

Fixed by waiting for the code to receive the first signal before overwriting
it in the test case.

Reverted unittest/unit.pl back to Test::Harness as some of our build machines didn't support the new recommended TAP::Harness module

unittest/mytap/tap.c:
  Fixed output for some tests that didn't call plan()

The reason for mtr warning is that collect_mysqld_features() starts mysqld with --datadir=/tmp and this 
directory does not exist on Windows.

Fix : instead of passing --datadir=$opt_vardir/tmp in collect_mysqld_features() just use --datadir=.
mysqld does not need a correct directory, just an existing one, as it is started with --help ---verbose -skip-grant-tables.

               FAILS WITH LIBEDIT

Fixed by checking the return value of the write()
function calls and handling the open files and fd
appropriately.


cmd-line-utils/libedit/vi.c:
  BUG#12329909 - BUILDING MYSQL WITH DEBUG SUPPORT
                 FAILS WITH LIBEDIT
  
  Added a check on the return value of the write()
  function calls.

calc_daynr() function returns negative result
if malformed date with zero year and month is used.
Attempt to calculate week day on negative value
leads to crash. The fix is return NULL for
'W', 'a', 'w' specifiers if zero year and month is used.
Additional fix for calc_daynr():
--added assertion that result can not be negative
--return 0 if zero year and month is used
