 - A segfault occured when the function 'kill_server' called 
   'my_sigset' with signal number 0. 'my_sigset' is a macro which
   uses 'sigaction' to install the signal handler with an invalid
   signal number will on most platforms return EINVAL but yields
   a segfauilt on IRIX 6.5
 - The server crash was detected by mysqld_safe and it was restarted although
   a shutdown was requested. 
 - Semantics of kill_server(0) is not known, leaving it intact

  A pattern to generate binlog for DROPped temp table in close_temporary_tables
  was buggy: could not deal with a grave-accent-in-name table.

  The fix exploits `append_identifier()' for quoting and duplicating accents.

Binlog lacks encoding info about DROPped temporary table.

Idea of the fix is to switch temporary to system_charset_info when a temporary table
is DROPped for binlog. Since that is the server, that automatically, but not the client, who generates the query
the binlog should be updated on the server's encoding for the coming DROP.
The `write_binlog_with_system_charset()' is introduced to replace similar problematic places in the code.

the file doesn't exist, as per the manual.
