Added a try to a normal repair() if repair_by_sort() failed.
This was not done with ENABLE KEYS and OPTIMIZE TABLE.
Fixed error code handling in mysql_alter_table().

innodb_table_locks_old_behavior: do not acquire an
InnoDB table lock for LOCK TABLES, as in mysql-4.0.18
and earlier.

  Change error code to HA_ERR_ROW_IS_REFERENCED if we cannot DROP a parent table referenced by a FOREIGN KEY constraint; this error number is less misleading than the previous value HA_ERR_CANNOT_ADD_FOREIGN, but misleading still; we should introduce to 5.0 a proper MySQL error code

when one connection had done FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK, some updates, and then COMMIT,
it was accepted but my_error() was called and so, while client got no error, error was logged in binlog.
We now don't call my_error() in this case; we assume the connection know what it does.
This problem was specific to 4.0.21. The change is needed to make replication work with existing versions of innobackup.

  Fix bug #5960: if one updated a column so that its size changed, or updated it to an externally stored (TEXT or BLOB) value, then ANOTHER externally stored column would show up as 512 bytes of good data + 20 bytes of garbage in a consistent read that fetched the old version of the row

(Fixed this by backporting some logic from 4.1)

in the error monitor thread.  (Bug #5898)

Original code was checking ! unix_socket for local_file flag.  This doesn't work and so was removed.  Now
to import a local file, you must use the --local command line option.

mysqlimport.c:
  Removed check of unix_socket to set local_file

Bug #5492 
"set @@session.read_rnd_buffer_size=33554432" crashes server on query

1. added warning comments for uint3korr (need one more byte allocated)
2. unsigned long in uint3korr was replaced by unsigned int to 
   avoid problems on 64-bits platforms
3. shorten warning comments in init_rr_cache in sql/records.cc
