Fixed failing myisam.test and rpl_rotate_logs.test on some configurations


mysql-test/r/myisam.result:
  Portability fix
mysql-test/r/rpl_rotate_logs.result:
  Portability fix

  Fixed compiler warnings

independently from the expression it is initialized from.
In other words, this change treats a user variable like
a table with one column and one record. Discussed with 
PeterG, Serg and Lars. This change also simplifies replication
allowing not to replicate variables' coercibility.
