Test failed on a certain Linux platform in automated environment. It turns out that this platform has an old version of Perl modules DBI and DBD::mysql installed, as well as the OS itself being relatively old.
Allowing error code 11 to be returned from mysqlhotcopy on expected error seems harmless and will make the test pass also with older libraries.

Also fix bug#59110: Memory leak of QUICK_SELECT_I allocated memory.
Includes Jørgen Lølands review comments.
      
Root cause of these bugs are that test_if_skip_sort_order() decided to
revert the 'skip_sort_order' descision (and use filesort) after the
query plan has been updated to reflect a 'skip' of the sort order.
      
This might happen in 'check_reverse_order:' if we have a 
select->quick which could not be made descending by appending 
a QUICK_SELECT_DESC. ().
      
The original 'save_quick' was then restored after the QEP has been modified,
which caused:
      
  - An incorrect 'precomputed_group_by= TRUE' may have been set, 
    and not reverted, as part of the already modifified QEP (Bug#59308)
  - A 'select->quick' might have been created which we fail to delete (bug#59110).
      
This fix is a refactorication of test_if_skip_sort_order() where all logic
related to modification of QEP (controlled by argument 'bool no_changes'), is
moved to the end of test_if_skip_sort_order(), and done after *all* 'test_if_skip'
checks has been performed - including the 'check_reverse_order:' checks.
      
The refactorication above contains now intentional changes to the logic which 
has been moved to the end of the function.
      
Furthermore, a smaller part of the fix address the handling of the 
select->quick objects which may already exists when we call 
'test_if_skip_sort_order()' (save_quick) -and
new select->quick's created during test_if_skip_sort_order():
      
  - Before new select->quick may be created by calling ::test_quick_select(), we
    set 'select->quick= 0' to avoid that ::test_quick_select() prematurely
    delete the save_quick's. (After this call we may have both a 'save_quick' 
    and 'select->quick')
      
  - All returns from ::test_if_skip_sort_order() where we may have both a
    'save_quick' and a 'select->quick' has been changed to goto's to the
    exit points 'skiped_sort_order:' or 'need_filesort:' where we
    decide which of the QUICK_SELECT's to keep, and delete the other.

The problem is that mysql monitor try to read from stdin without
checking input source type.

The solution is to stop reading data from standard input if a call
to read(2) failed.

handling.

The problem was that parsing of nested regular expression involved
recursive calls. Such recursion didn't take into account the amount of
available stack space, which ended up leading to stack overflow crashes.

      
There is one part of the test case that needs to break
and re-establish the circular topology. For this the test
stops the slave threads on a couple of servers and restarts
them with START SLAVE. However, no check is done on the
status of the IO or SQL threads before proceeding with
the subsequent commands.
      
Because rpl_only_running_threads is set to 1 this can lead
to silently not syncing all slave threads as expected, 
ultimately resulting in unexpected results (and consequently
on a failing test run).
      
We fix this by replacing the START SLAVE instructions with
calls to --source include/start_slave.inc, which will wait
for the slave threads to be running (show 'Yes' in 
Slave_IO|SQL_Running fields of SHOW SLAVE STATUS) before 
proceeding. Additionally, we change rpl_sync.inc to make the
IO thread report that it is running when its running status
is any other than 'No'.

Bug #55755 : Date STD variable signness breaks server on FreeBSD and OpenBSD

* Added a check to configure on the size of time_t
* Created a macro to check for a valid time_t that is safe to use with datetime 
  functions and store in TIMESTAMP columns.
* Used the macro consistently instead of the ad-hoc checks introduced by 52315
* Fixed compliation warnings on platforms where the size of time_t is smaller than
  the size of a long (e.g. OpenBSD 4.8 64 amd64).

Bug #52315: utc_date() crashes when system time > year 2037

* Added a correct check for the timestamp range instead of just variable size check to
SET TIMESTAMP.
* Added overflow checking before converting to time_t. 
* Using a correct localized error message in this case instead of the generic error.
* Added a test suite.
* fixed the checks so that they check for unsigned time_t as well. Used the checks 
  consistently across the source code.
* fixed the original test case to expect the new error code.

btr_rec_get_field_ref_offs(), btr_rec_get_field_ref(): New functions.
Get the pointer to an externally stored field.

btr_cur_set_ownership_of_extern_field(): Assert that the BLOB has not
already been disowned.

btr_store_big_rec_extern_fields(): Rename to
btr_store_big_rec_extern_fields_func() and add the debug parameter
update_in_place. All pointers to externally stored columns in the
record must either be zero or they must be pointers to inherited
columns, owned by this record or an earlier record version. For any
BLOB that is stored, the BLOB pointer must previously have been
zero. When the function completes, all BLOB pointers must be nonzero
and owned by the record.

primary_key_no == 0".

Attempt to create InnoDB table with non-nullable column of
geometry type having an unique key with length 12 on it and
with some other candidate key led to server crash due to
assertion failure in both non-debug and debug builds.

The problem was that such a non-candidate key could have
been sorted as the first key in table/.FRM, before any legit
candidate keys. This resulted in assertion failure in InnoDB
engine which assumes that primary key should either be the
first key in table/.FRM or should not exist at all.

The reason behind such an incorrect sorting was an wrong
value of Create_field::key_length member for geometry field
(which was set to its pack_length == 12) which confused code
in mysql_prepare_create_table(), so it would skip marking
such key as a key with partial segments.

This patch fixes the problem by ensuring that this member
gets the same value of Create_field::key_length member as 
for other blob fields (from which geometry field class is
inherited), and as result unique keys on geometry fields
are correctly marked as having partial segments.

Antelope files in btr_check_blob_fil_page_type(). Unfortunately, we
must keep the check in production builds, because InnoDB wrote
uninitialized garbage to FIL_PAGE_TYPE until fairly recently (5.1.x).

It was the enabling of UNIV_DEBUG_FILE_ACCESSES that caught Bug #55284
in the first place. This is a very light piece of of debug code, and
there really is no reason why it is not enabled in all debug builds.

Root cause for this bug is that the optimizer try to detect&
optimize the special case:
      
'<field>  BETWEEN c1 AND c1' and handle this as the condition '<field>  = c1'
            
This was implemented inside add_key_field(.. *field, *value[]...)
which assumed field to refer key Field, and value[] to refer a [low...high]
constant pair. value[0] and value[1] was then compared for equality.
            
In a 'normal' BETWEEN condition of the form '<field>  BETWEEN val1 and val2' the
BETWEEN operation is represented with an argementlist containing the
values [<field>, val1, val2] - add_key_field() is then called with
parameters field=<field>, *value=val1.
            
However, if the BETWEEN predicate specified:
            
 1)  '<const1>  BETWEEN<const2>  AND<field>
            
the 'field' and 'value' arguments to add_key_field() had to be swapped.
This was implemented by trying to cheat add_key_field() to handle it like:
            
 2) '<const1>  GE<const2>  AND<const1>  LE<field>'
            
As we didn't really replace the BETWEEN operation with 'ge' and 'le',
add_key_field() still handled it as a 'BETWEEN' and compared the (swapped)
arguments<const1>  and<const2>  for equality. If they was equal, the
condition 1) was incorrectly 'optimized' to:
            
 3) '<field>  EQ <const1>'
            
This fix moves this optimization of '<field>  BETWEEN c1 AND c1' into
add_key_fields() which then calls add_key_equal_fields() to collect 
key equality / comparison for the key fields in the BETWEEN condition.

trx rollback or purge

This patch does not relax the failing debug assertion during purge.
That will be revisited once we have managed to repeat the assertion failure.

row_upd_changes_ord_field_binary_func(): Renamed from
row_upd_changes_ord_field_binary(). Add the parameter que_thr_t* in
UNIV_DEBUG builds. When the off-page column cannot be retrieved,
assert that the current transaction is a recovered one and that it is
the one that is currently being rolled back.

row_upd_changes_ord_field_binary(): A wrapper macro for
row_upd_changes_ord_field_binary_func() that discards the que_thr_t*
parameter unless UNIV_DEBUG is defined.

row_purge_upd_exist_or_extern_func(): Renamed from
row_purge_upd_exist_or_extern(). Add the parameter que_thr_t* in
UNIV_DEBUG builds.

row_purge_upd_exist_or_extern(): A wrapper macro for
row_purge_upd_exist_or_extern_func() that discards the que_thr_t*
parameter unless UNIV_DEBUG is defined.

Make trx_roll_crash_recv_trx const. If there were a 'do not
dereference' attribute, it would be appropriate as well.

Third updated patch - this version also includes copyright notice in added Perl script.
This patch implements a check for such modules at runtime. If modules are not found or unable to load, the test is skipped with 
the following message:
            
            [ skipped ]  Test needs Perl modules DBI and DBD::mysql
            
Checks are done via a helper Perl script which looks for the module in a runtime environment that is as similar to that of the 
mysqlhotcopy script as possible (thus not intended for Windows environments at this time).
The helper script tells mysql-test about the result by writing information to a temporary file that is later read by mysql-test.
See comments in added files (have_dbi_dbd-mysql.inc and checkDBI_DBD-mysql.pl) for details.
The patch also removes the mysqlhotcopy tests from the list of disabled tests.
