    Don't show PSEUDO_THREAD_ID in SHOW VARIABLES because:
    - we don't want people to discover this variable as it could never do good to
    set it (it was designed for use by mysqlbinlog only, so that a thread can have
    several temp tables of the same name at the same time)
    - if we show it in SHOW VARIABLES, Mysql Administrator will display it and
    this will force us to put a description, so all MySQL Administrator user
    will be aware of this variable, some may have the idea to set it with a SET
    command, and then it will cause bad things.
    The variable is still settable, and still visible with SELECT @@.
