Log Message:
Changes 5.5.17:
* Replication: Previously, replication slaves could connect to the master
  server only through master accounts that use native authentication. Now
  replication slaves can also connect through master accounts that use
  nonnative authentication (except Windows native authentication) if the
  required client-side plugin is installed on the slave side in the directory
  named by the slave plugin_dir system variable.
* MEMORY table creation time is now available in the CREATE_TIME column of the
  INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES table and the Create_time column of SHOW TABLE
  STATUS output.
* InnoDB Storage Engine: This fix improves the performance of instrumentation
  code for InnoDB buffer pool operations.
* InnoDB Storage Engine: Data from BLOB columns could be lost if the server
  crashed at a precise moment when other columns were being updated in an
  InnoDB table.
* InnoDB Storage Engine: Lookups using secondary indexes could give incorrect
  matches under a specific set of conditions. The conditions involve an index
  defined on a column prefix, for a BLOB or other long column stored outside
  the index page, with a table using the Barracuda file format.
* InnoDB Storage Engine: This fix corrects cases where the MySQL server could
  hang or abort with a long semaphore wait message. (This is a different issue
  than when these symptoms occurred during a CHECK TABLE statement.)
* Internal conversion of zero to binary and back could yield a result with
  incorrect precision.
* Valgrind warnings generated by filesort operations were fixed.
* mysqld_safe did not properly check for an already running instance of mysqld.
* The help message for mysql_install_db did not indicate that it supports the
  --defaults-file, --defaults-extra-file and --no-defaults options.
* An assertion designed to detect zero-length sort keys also was raised when
  the entire key set fit in memory.
* myisampack could create corrupt FULLTEXT indexes when compressing tables.
* A linking problem prevented the FEDERATED storage engine plugin from loading.
