This is not a fix, it just disables the erroneous test cases.

Problem: the test syncs slave by a 'wait_condition' waiting until
table t1 has 5000 rows. However, there is no guarantee that t1
makes it to the slave before the wait_condition.
Fix: sync_slave_with_master just after t1 was created.

The file tree in mtr's vardir has changed so an old
hard-coded path in mysql-test/t/subselect.test didn't
work.
Fix: update the paths in the test.

positions changed. Fixed by removing binlog positions from
output, and also:
 - removed code not used to verify the tested property
 - added comments

Made the test innodb_max_dirty_pages_pct_func clean up after itself.

Problem: rpl_ndb_transaction fails because it assumes nothing
is written to the binlog at a certain point. However, ndb may
binlog updates in ndb system tables at a nondeterministic
time point after an ndb table update has been committed.
Fix: break the test into two. rpl_ndb_transaction still does
the ndb updates needed by the first half of the test. The new
test case rpl_bug26395 includes the part that assumes nothing
more will be written to the binlog.

Problem 1: main.loaddata tried to trigger an error caused by
reading files outside the vardir, by reading itself. However,
if loaddata.test is not world-readable (e.g., umask=0077),
then another error is triggered.
Fix 1: allow the other error too.
Problem 2: rpl_slave_skip and rpl_innodb_mixed_dml tried to
copy a file from mysql-test/suite/rpl/data to mysql-test/var
and then read it. That failed too if umask=0077, since the
file would not become world-readable.
Fix 2: move the files from mysql-test/suite/rpl/data to
mysql-test/std_data and update tests accordingly. Remove
the directory mysql-test/suite/rpl/data.

   Bug#36787 Test funcs_1.charset_collation_1 failing
Details:
1. Skip charset_collation_1 if charset "ucs2_bin" is
   missing (property which distincts "vanilla" builds
   from the others)
2. Let builds with version_comment LIKE "%Advanced%"
   (found them for 5.1) execute charset_collation_3.
3. Update comments charset_collation.inc so that they
   reflect the current experiences.

MySQL client crashed if no input was passed to it.

Bug#33812: mysql client incorrectly parsing DELIMITER
      
Remove unnecessary and incorrect code that tried
to pull delimiter commands out of the middle of
statements.

            as a commentary

mysql client has been modified to interpret EOL after
standalone -- commentary strings like whitespace
character (according to
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/ansi-diff-comments.html)

Remove unnecessary and incorrect code that tried
to pull delimiter commands out of the middle of
statements.

                        
      The crash appeared to be a result of allocating an instance of Discrete_interval 
      automatically that that was referred in out-of-declaration scope.
                        
      Fixed with correcting backing up and restoring scheme of
      auto_inc_intervals_forced, introduced by bug#33029, by means of shallow copying;
      added simulation code that forces executing those fixes of the former bug that
      targeted at master-and-slave having incompatible bug#33029-prone versions.

Another problem is that the backtrace facility wasn't being
enabled for non-Linux targets even if the target OS has the
backtrace functions. Also, the stacktrace functions inside
mysqltest were being used without proper checks for their
presence in the build.

                  replicated correctly between machines with
                  mixed endiannes

On a slow environment like valgrind the test is vulnerable
because it does not check if slave has stopped at time
of the new session is requested `start slave;' -- disabling
test till it is fixed.

ha_innodb.so was incorrectly installed in the lib/mysql
directory rather than in lib/mysql/plugin.
