#2005 Long decimal comparion bug.                                               
#2055 mysqldump should replace "-inf" numeric field values with "NULL"

Otherwise, if the previous run ended with a crash, and the PID was 1234,
and you have rebooted the machine and the new PID is 99 then in the PID
file you will have 9934.
Note: users of mysqld_safe did not have the problem because this script
deletes the PID file before starting mysqld.

The constructor of Rotate_log_event used when we are rotating our binlog or
relay log, should not assume that there is a nonzero THD available.
For example, when we are reacting to SIGHUP, the THD is 0.
In fact we don't need to use the THD in this constructor;
we can do like for Stop_log_event, and use the minimal Log_event
constructor.
If we were allowed to put Unix-specific commands in the testsuite,
I'd add a test for this (<sigh>).


sql/log.cc:
  A comment to warn that thd can be 0.
  The part about LOG_EVENT_FORCED_ROTATE_F is just to avoid segfault;
  this flag is already removed in 4.1 anyway.
sql/log_event.cc:
  A comment.
sql/log_event.h:

  This fixes BUG#2045
