Undoing the patch, it complicates the code but is not the solution

I do not beleive newline mismatch could be the cause of this failure
First, I cannot see how this could be a problem, mtr ignores the newline
  when reading the expect file, and the file is written and read on Windows.
Second, if this really was the problem it should have been deterministic:
  either the newline is correctly interepreted or it is not.

  - Support for graceful shutdown of cluster by using "ndb_mgm -e 'shutdown'"

 - Make it possible to use MTR_MAXNDB to set the upper limit of number of
  parallel ndb test to run.
 - Very useful on machines with many cores and lots of RAM

 -  Find ndbmtd and use it round robin

Enabled test snippet for bug 4374, tested on Mac OS X 10.6 as well as Solaris.
Moved test snippet to a different place in the file, in order to avoid having 
to save and restore "SET NAMES" setting. New surroundings expect latin1, as is 
used in the testsnippet.

An extra copy of the commented test snippet is removed, a comment is added,
SQL keywords are converted to uppercase, and engine name "heap" is updated to 
"Memory".

Also added Copyright statement and a notice about the file's encoding(s).

            command line clients.

Postfix covering other mysql standard clients like mysql_upgrade,
mysqlbinlog, mysqlcheck, mysqlimport, mysqlshow and mysqlslap.

When mysqldadmin is run with sleep and count options,
it goes into an infinite loop and keeps executing the
specified command.

This happened because the statement, responsible for
decrementing the count value, was missing.

Fixed by adding a statement which will decrement the
count value for each iteration.

It is a backported patch.

Backport to 5.0.

/*![:version:] Query Code */, where [:version:] is a sequence of 5 
digits representing the mysql server version(e.g /*!50200 ... */),
is a special comment that the query in it can be executed on those 
servers whose versions are larger than the version appearing in the 
comment. It leads to a security issue when slave's version is larger 
than master's. A malicious user can improve his privileges on slaves. 
Because slave SQL thread is running with SUPER privileges, so it can
execute queries that he/she does not have privileges on master.
      
This bug is fixed with the logic below: 
- To replace '!' with ' ' in the magic comments which are not applied on
  master. So they become common comments and will not be applied on slave.
      
- Example:
  'INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1) /*!10000, (2)*/ /*!99999 ,(3)*/
   will be binlogged as
  'INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1) /*!10000, (2)*/ /* 99999 ,(3)*/

        For all the boolean system variables we now issue warnings if the
        value wasn't recognized. Before that we just silently set them
        to FALSE in this case.

per-file comments:

Bug #46393 If for slow_query_log a string is entered it does not complain.
        warning issued if no documented value was specified.

        IA64 and some other arcitectures use different float rounding mode and
        i find no decent way to make it consistent.
        So the test changed to be insensitive to this.

When mysqldump tries to dump information in xml format,
the result does not contain field level comments.

In order to retrieve various informations for a field/column,
mysqldump currently uses 'show fields from <tab>' statement.
The attributes returned by the statement lacks the information
regarding field comments.

Fixed by changing the query to one that probes I_S to retrieve
required field informations, including the field comment.

The test passes on MacOSX. removing it from the experimental list.

Backported the fix to 5.1.
Problem: the auxiliary test files rpl_start_server.inc and rpl_stop_server.inc
write a file that is later read by mtr. The bug was that the file was written
with platform-dependent newline terminators, i.e., \r\n on windows, whereas mtr
only understands \n.
Fix: write the file so that it uses \n on all platforms.

Fix: copy my_decimal by value, to avoid dangling pointers.

Bug#58525: separate string and numbers for comparing

Added comments to rpl_show_relaylog_events as requested by 
reviewer.

            null from mysql_store_result.

mysqlslap segfaults at a point when it tries to fetch rows from
the result set.

Under some circumstances, mysql_store_result can return 'NULL',
even after query execution (mysql_query) succeeds, and eventually
a segfault might occur if same unchecked return value is passed
to mysql_fetch_row.

Fixed by adding a check on mysql_store_result's return value.
