It happens that mysql->client_next->client_next=mysql
and mysql_close() goes into infinite loop.
Results vary from simple sigsegv (FreeBSD), to hard system lockup (Linux)

no need to set rpl_parse, rpl_probe and rpl_pivot to zero as whole mysql
structure is bzeroed in mysql_init(0) few lines before

This makes it possible to check origin of binary from the output of 'show variables'

   after it was removed from manual.texi (where it was automatically
   generated from).

   confuses RPM's Perl module dependency checking (it adds a bogus
   requirement to "Perl(the)", as "use" is a Perl keyword). (BUG#1931)

   as it is not really required. (BUG 1610) Thanks to Scott Harrison for
   the suggestion.

The right way to fix this is to change the Field::store(longlong) method to be
Field::store(longlong, bool unsigned_flag), but this is better to do in 4.1 than in 4.0

minor fixups: more verbose on "no memory" errors - report requested size, avoid flushing rec buffer to a file that is closed and deleted already (on got_error=1)

   setting LIBS to include @openss_libs@ (BUG#1652)

    "CHANGE MASTER makes SQL thread restart from coordinates of I/O thread".
    So, in CHANGE MASTER:
    when it seems reasonable that the user did not want to discontinue
    its replication (i.e. when he is not specifying host or port or master_log_file
    or master_log_pos; this will be documented), set the coordinates of the
    I/O thread to those of the SQL thread. This way, the SQL thread will see
    no discontinuity in the relay log (i.e. will skip no events), because
    the I/O thread will fill the brand new relay log with the events which
    are just after the position where the SQL thread had stopped
    (before CHANGE MASTER was issued).
    And a new test for this bug.
