Bugs Fixed
[LIST]
[]With innodb_large_prefix set to 1, Blackhole storage engine was incompatible with InnoDB table definitions, thus adding new indexes would cause replication errors on the slave. Fixed #1126 (upstream #53588).

[]A build error on FreeBSD caused by fixing the bug #255 was present. Bug fixed #2284.

[]Compilation warnings fixed in sql_planner.cc module. Bug fixed #3632 (upstream #77637).
[]A memory leak fixed in PFS unit test. Bug fixed #1806 (upstream #89384).
