Added the INNOBASE storage engine and the
            BDB storage engine to the MySQL source
            distribution.
          
            Updated the documentation about GEMINI
            tables.
          
            Fixed a bug in INSERT DELAYED that caused
            threads to hang when inserting NULL into
            an AUTO_INCREMENT column.
          
            Fixed a bug in CHECK TABLE /
            REPAIR TABLE that could cause a thread to
            hang.
          
            REPLACE will not replace a row that
            conflicts with an AUTO_INCREMENT
            generated key.
          
            mysqld now only sets
            CLIENT_TRANSACTIONS in
            mysql->server_capabilities if the
            server supports a transaction-safe storage engine.
          
            Fixed LOAD DATA INFILE to allow numeric
            values to be read into ENUM and
            SET columns.
          
Improved error diagnostic for slave thread exit.
            Fixed bug in ALTER TABLE ... ORDER BY.
          
            Added max_user_connections variable to
            mysqld.
          
            Limit query length for replication by
            max_allowed_packet, not the arbitrary
            limit of 4 MB.
          
            Allow space around = in argument to
            --set-variable.
          
            Fixed problem in automatic repair that could leave some
            threads in state Waiting for table.
          
            SHOW CREATE TABLE now displays the
            UNION=() for MERGE
            tables.
          
            ALTER TABLE now remembers the old
            UNION=() definition.
          
Fixed bug when replicating timestamps.
Fixed bug in bidirectional replication.
            Fixed bug in the BDB storage engine that
            occurred when using an index on multi-part key where a key
            part may be NULL.
          
            Fixed MAX() optimization on sub-key for
            BDB tables.
          
            Fixed problem where garbage results were returned when using
            BDB tables and BLOB or
            TEXT fields when joining many tables.
          
            Fixed a problem with BDB tables and
            TEXT columns.
          
            Fixed bug when using a BLOB key where a
            const row wasn't found.
          
            Fixed that mysqlbinlog writes the
            timestamp value for each query. This ensures that one gets
            same values for date functions like NOW()
            when using mysqlbinlog to pipe the
            queries to another server.
          
            Allow --skip-gemini,
            --skip-bdb, and
            --skip-innodb options to be specified when
            invoking mysqld, even if these storage
            engines are not compiled in to mysqld.
          
            One can now do GROUP BY ... DESC.
          
            Fixed a deadlock in the SET code, when
            one ran SET @foo=bar, where
            bar is a column reference, an error was
            not properly generated.
