- CHAR() now returns binary string as default
- CHAR(X*65536+Y*256+Z) is now equal to CHAR(X,Y,Z) independent of the character set for CHAR()
- Test for both ETIMEDOUT and ETIME from pthread_cond_timedwait()
  (Some old systems returns ETIME and it's safer to test for both values
   than to try to write a wrapper for each old system)
- Fixed new introduced bug in NOT BETWEEN X and X
- Ensure we call commit_by_xid or rollback_by_xid for all engines, even if one engine has failed
- Use octet2hex() for all conversion of string to hex
- Simplify and optimize code

  Fixed compilation problem on FreeBSD,
  after discussion with Jani.
  Doesn't FreeBSD follow the standard?
  

  The fix is needed to perform locking on shared data structures
  This is modification of patch proposed by Leandro Santi
  (see http://webs.sinectis.com.ar/lesanti/misc/mysql-4.0.23a-openssl_locking.patch)

check_equality() finds equalities among field items. It checks input items
to be Item_fields thus skipping view's fields, which are represented by
Item_direct_view_ref. Because of this index wasn't applied in all cases
it can be.

To fix this problem check_equality() now takes real item of
Item_direct_view_ref, except outer view refs (with depended_from set).

  - Added error printout and nice exit for duplicate default sections
