Starting with this version, all MySQL distributions will be
configured, compiled and tested with crash-me and the benchmarks on
the following platforms: SunOS 5.6 sun4u, SunOS 5.5.1 sun4u, SunOS 4.14 sun4c,
SunOS 5.6 i86pc, Irix 6.3 mips5k, HP-UX 10.20 hppa, AIX 4.2.1 ppc,
OSF1 V4.0 alpha, FreeBSD 2.2.2 i86pc and BSDI 3.1 i386.
Fix COUNT(*) problems when the WHERE clause didn't match any
records. (Bug from 3.21.17.)
Removed that NULL = NULL is true. Now you must use IS NULL
or IS NOT NULL to test whether or not a value is NULL.
(This is according to ANSI SQL but may break
old applications that are ported from mSQL.)
You can get the old behavior by compiling with -DmSQL_COMPLIANT.
Fixed bug that core dumped when using many LEFT OUTER JOIN clauses.
Fixed bug in ORDER BY on string formula with possible NULL values.
Fixed problem in range optimizer when using <= on sub index.
