This was only demonstrated by the use of PASSWORD(), it was not related to
  that function at all. The calculation of the size of a field in the results
  of a UNION did not take into account the possible growth of a string field
  when being converted to the aggregated character set.

  Fixed bug#10977: No warning issued if a column name is truncated
  New warning message is added.

When an alias is set to a column leading spaces are removed from the alias.
But when this is done on aliases set by user this can lead to confusion.

Now Item::set_name() method issues the warning if leading spaces were removed
from an alias set by user.

New warning message is added.

The bug caused a crash of the server if a subquery with
ORDER BY DESC used the range access method.
The bug happened because the method QUICK_SELECT_DESC::reset
was not reworked after MRR interface had been introduced.

The bug was due to a loss happened during a refactoring made
on May 30 2005 that modified the function JOIN::reinit.
As a result of it for any subquery the value of offset_limit_cnt
was not restored for the following executions. Yet the first 
execution of the subquery made it equal to 0.
The fix restores this value in the function JOIN::reinit.

DESCRIBE returned the type BIGINT for a column of a view if the column
was specified by an expression over values of the type INT.
    
E.g. for the view defined as follows:
  CREATE VIEW v1 SELECT COALESCE(f1,f2) FROM t1
DESCRIBE returned type BIGINT for the only column of the view if f1,f2 are
columns of the INT type.
At the same time DESCRIBE returned type INT for the only column of the table
defined by the statement:
  CREATE TABLE t2 SELECT COALESCE(f1,f2) FROM t1.
    
This inconsistency was removed by the patch.

Now the code chooses between INT/BIGINT depending on the
precision of the aggregated column type.
 
Thus both DESCRIBE commands above returns type INT for v1 and t2.

mysqldump did not select the correct database before trying to dump
views from it. this resulted in an empty result set, which in turn
startled mysql-dump into a core-dump.  this only happened for views,
not for tables, and was only visible with multiple databases that
weren't by sheer luck in the order mysqldump required, anyway. this
fixes by selecting the correct database before dumping views; it also
catches the empty set-condition if it should occur for other reasons.
