in a deadlock-free manner. This splits locking the global read lock in two steps.
This fixes a consequence of this bug, known as:
BUG#4953 'mysqldump --master-data may report incorrect binlog position if using InnoDB'
And a test.


sql/handler.cc:
  making COMMIT wait if FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK happened.
sql/lock.cc:
  an additional stage so that FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK blocks COMMIT:
  make_global_read_lock_block_commit():
  taking the global read lock is TWO steps (2nd step is optional; without
  it, COMMIT of existing transactions will be allowed):
  lock_global_read_lock() THEN make_global_read_lock_block_commit().
sql/mysql_priv.h:
  new argument to wait_if_global_read_lock()
sql/sql_class.h:
  THD::global_read_lock now an uint to reflect the 2 steps of global read lock (does not block COMMIT / does)
sql/sql_db.cc:
  update for new prototype
sql/sql_parse.cc:
  implementing the two steps of global read lock so that FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK can block COMMIT without deadlocking with COMMITs.

client/mysql.cc:
  in_comment is now outside the add_line().

Removed improper casts.
Thanks to Joerg Bruehe for the fix.


include/my_global.h:
  Build bug on 64-Bit platforms.
  Removed improper casts.
  Changed to uniform writing style.
  Appended 'L' to 32-Bit constants which doesn't hurt on 32-Bit,
  but can be important for some 64-Bit compilers.

  smarter use of the Disable_binlog object (using a block so that when leaving it either way, the object gets

replacing the no_log argument of mysql_create_table() by some safer method
(temporarily setting OPTION_BIN_LOG to 0) which guarantees that even the automatic
DELETE FROM heap_table does not get into the binlog when a not-yet-existing HEAP table
is opened by mysql_create_table().

sql/mysql_priv.h:
  removing argument no_log from mysql_create_table(); no_log was perfect as some
  binlogging could still be done by open_unireg_entry() for a HEAP table.
sql/sql_class.h:
  new class Disable_binlog used to temporarily disable binlogging for one thread.
sql/sql_parse.cc:
  removing no_log
sql/sql_table.cc:
  removing no_log from mysql_create_table(); instead using new class Disable_binlog.
  Disabling binlogging in some cases, where the binlogging is done later by some other code
  (case of CREATE SELECT and ALTER).

  we must take CLIENT_LOCAL_FILES down (it was probably a forgotten '~').

Adding a compilation define so that on recent Darwin mysqld does not react to SIGHUP and SIGQUIT:
this fixes a rpl000001 problem on our Powermac G5 machine (popping after an upgrade from 10.3.4 to
10.3.5) and is expected to fix 
BUG#2030 "relay bin log on slave resets multiple times a second"
(i.e. under some Mac OS X Panther versions, mysqld receives many SIGHUP and SIGQUIT).
So this fix is more a problem-hider than a real understanding of why mysqld receives so many signals.
Note that we saw other problems on this OS where mysqld reacts to Ctrl-Z but apparently only once,
where using SSL seems to make the problem more frequent...
