so that if the substitution contains single-quotes, the program will fail.

The grep expression that finds a running "mysqld" program fails if the
"mysqld_safe" is running with the same PID.

Now, excise "ps" output that has the word " grep" or "mysqld_safe" in 
it, to be a little more certain that the matched process is not a false 
positive hit.  This will fail when the path to mysqld contains either
of those two names, which should be acceptable.

Additionally, some text to search could be truncated if very long.  
Expand the number of lines "ps" emits.

mysql-test-run.pl --start-and-exit starts but does not exit
Instead, it hangs with ActiveState perl. The error is
believed to be a bug in ActiveState implementation.
Workaround is using POSIX::_exit, as described here

Thanks to Philip Stoev for the idea of the patch.

The '@' symbol can not be used in the host name according to rfc952.
The fix:
added function check_host_name(LEX_STRING *str)
which checks that all symbols in host name string are valid and
host name length is not more than max host name length
(just moved check_string_length() function from the parser into check_host_name()).

The problem:
I_S views table does not check the presence of SHOW_VIEW_ACL|SELECT_ACL
privileges for a view. It leads to discrepancy between SHOW CREATE VIEW

When analyzing the possible index use cases the server was re-using an internal structure.
This is wrong, as this internal structure gets updated during the analysis.
Fixed by making a copy of the internal structure for every place it needs to be used.
Also stopped the generation of empty SEL_TREE structures that unnecessary 
complicate the analysis.

Repush of change to fix tests on Pushbuild.

Server created "arc" directories inside database directories and
maintained there useless copies of .frm files.

Creation and renaming procedures of those copies as well as
creation of "arc" directories has been discontinued.
Removal procedure has been kept untouched to be able to
cleanup existent database directories by the DROP DATABASE
query. Also view renaming procedure has been updated to remove
these directories.


sql/parse_file.cc:
  Fixed bug #17823: 'arc' directories inside database directories.
  View/table creation and renaming procedures maintained
  backup copies of .frm files. Those copies are unused yet,
  so this feature was incomplete and unnecessary.
  
  1. Unwanted code has been hidden by FRM_ARCHIVE ifdefs
  (the FRM_ARCHIVE macro is not defined).
  
  2. Renaming procedure has been modified to remove obsolete
  "arc" directories.
sql/parse_file.h:
  Fixed bug #17823: 'arc' directories inside database directories.
  The "thd" parameter has been added to the rename_in_schema_file()
  function.
sql/sql_db.cc:
  Fixed bug #17823: 'arc' directories inside database directories.
  Scope of the mysql_rm_arc_files() function has been changed to
  global for use from the parse_file.cc file.
sql/sql_view.cc:
  Fixed bug #17823: 'arc' directories inside database directories.
  Added the "thd" argument to rename_in_schema_file() calls.

     JOIN for the subselect wasn't cleaned if we came upon an error
     during sub_select() execution. That leads to the assertion failure
     in close_thread_tables()

Machines with hostname set to "localhost" cause uniqueness errors in 
the SQL bootstrap data.

Now, insert zero lines for cases where the (lowercased) hostname is 
the same as an already-inserted 'localhost' name.  Also, fix a few tests 
that expect certain local accounts to have a certain host name.

Bug#38311 - Fix of some cruft from remove_files in ndb_autodiscover.test, clean up of distinct.test,
and replacing error numbers with error names.

            
A stored procedure involving substrings could crash the server on certain
platforms because of invalid memory reads.
          
During storing the new blob-field value, the cached value's address range
overlapped that of the new field value. This caused problems when the 
cached value storage was reallocated to provide access for a new 
characater set representation. The patch checks the address ranges, and if
they overlap, the new field value is copied to a new storage before it is
converted to the new character set.


mysql-test/r/sp.result:
  Added result set
mysql-test/t/sp.test:
  Added test case
sql/field.cc:
  The source and destination address ranges of a character conversion must not overlap or the 'from' address will be invalidated as the temporary value-

The fix for bug 31887 was incomplete : it assumes that all the 
field types returned by the IS_NUM macro are descendants of 
Item_num and tries to zero-fill the values before doing constant
substitution with such fields when they are compared to constant string
values.
The only exception to this is Field_timestamp : it's in the IS_NUM
macro, but is not a descendant of Field_num.
Fixed by excluding timestamp fields (Field_timestamp) when zero-filling
when converting the constant to compare with to a string.
Note that this will not exclude the timestamp columns from const 
propagation.

Bug#37114: sql_mode NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES does not work properly with LOAD DATA      Bug#37114: sql_mode NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES does not work properly with LOAD DATA INFILE

tweaked test to make embedded server happy

NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES was not heeded in LOAD DATA INFILE
and SELECT INTO OUTFILE.  It is now.

mysql-test/r/loaddata.result:
  Show that SQL-mode NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES is heeded in
  INFILE/OUTFILE, and that dump/restore cycles work!
mysql-test/t/loaddata.test:
  Show that SQL-mode NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES is heeded in
  INFILE/OUTFILE, and that dump/restore cycles work!
sql/sql_class.cc:
  Add function to enquire whether ESCAPED BY was given.
  When doing SELECT...OUTFILE, use ESCAPED BY if specifically
  given; otherwise use sensible default value depending on
  SQL-mode features NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES.
sql/sql_class.h:
  Add function to enquire whether ESCAPED BY was given.
sql/sql_load.cc:
  When doing LOAD DATA INFILE, use ESCAPED BY if specifically

  SQL-mode features NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES.

Details:
- backport of some improvements which prevent sporadic
  failures from 5.1 to 5.0
- @@GLOBAL.CONCURRENT_INSERT= 0 also for slave server
- --sorted_result before all selects which have result
  sets with more than one row
- Replace error numbers by error names

Correct usage of strncat() in get_symbol_path()

3rd parameter to strncat is changed to be count of
