Shift the ID values up into a range where they will not collide with those
which we use for real data, when we fill the system tables.

Will be merged up to 5.0 where it is needed for 5.0.38.

- Problem: data separators were copied to a fixed-size buffer
  on the stack; memcpy was used, without bounds checking; a
  server crash could result if long FIELDS ENCLOSED BY, etc.,
  was given
- Fix: write the separators directly, instead of copying to
  a buffer first (in select_export::send_data())

  No need to set LICENSE or USE_SYMDIR from project files
make_win_bin_dist:
  Changed location of SQL initialization files to be "share/"

  Removed accidently added my_winsem.c
make_win_bin_dist:
  Corrected test for relwithdebinfo target
mysql.sln:
  Specify that comp_err depends on zlib

  Restore accidently removed line

  Major cleanup of old Visual Studio project files, aligning engines etc

  - Support both "release" and "relwithdebinfo" targets
  - Copy ".pdb" and ".pdb" files for the server and instance manager
  - Removed the examples directory, unsupported
  - Handle both old and new builds in the same script, "-debug" and "-nt"
    extensions, directory "data" and "share" in different location

 - Build sql files for netware from the mysql_system_tables*.sq files
 - Fix comments about mysql_create_system_tables.sh
 - Use mysql_install_db.sh to create system tables for mysql_test-run-shell
 - Fix mysql-test-run.pl to also look in share/mysql for the msyql_system*.sql files

Changeset coded today by Magnus Svensson, just the application to 5.0.38 is by Joerg Bruehe.

TABLE ... WRITE".

Memory and CPU hogging occured when connection which had to wait for table
lock was serviced by thread which previously serviced connection that was
killed (note that connections can reuse threads if thread cache is enabled).
One possible scenario which exposed this problem was when thread which
provided binlog dump to replication slave was implicitly/automatically
killed when the same slave reconnected and started pulling data through
different thread/connection.
The problem also occured when one killed particular query in connection
(using KILL QUERY) and later this connection had to wait for some table
lock.

This problem was caused by the fact that thread-specific mysys_var::abort
variable, which indicates that waiting operations on mysys layer should
be aborted (this includes waiting for table locks), was set by kill
operation but was never reset back. So this value was "inherited" by the
following statements or even other connections (which reused the same
physical thread). Such discrepancy between this variable and THD::killed
flag broke logic on SQL-layer and caused CPU and memory hogging.

This patch tries to fix this problem by properly resetting this member.

There is no test-case associated with this patch since it is hard to test
for memory/CPU hogging conditions in our test-suite.

One possible scenario which exposed this problem was when thread which

In 5.* versions memory hogging was added to CPU hogging. Moreover in
those versions the problem also occured when one killed particular query
in connection (using KILL QUERY) and later this connection had to wait for
some table lock.

            differences in tables
Certain merge tables were wrongly reported as having incorrect definition:
- Some fields that are 1 byte long (e.g. TINYINT, CHAR(1)), might
  be internally casted (in certain cases) to a different type on a
  storage engine layer. (affects 4.1 and up)
- If tables in a merge (and a MERGE table itself) had short VARCHAR column (less
  than 4 bytes) and at least one (but not all) tables were ALTER'ed (even to an
  identical table: ALTER TABLE xxx ENGINE=yyy), table definitions went ouf of
  sync. (affects 4.1 only)

This is fixed by relaxing a check for underlying conformance and setting
field type to FIELD_TYPE_STRING in case varchar is shorter than 4
when a table is created.
