Recently a former colleague asked about the ‘mysterious’ 27 bug fixes provided earlier this month. I promised him and the folks at the SCaLE Conference an answer. I took at look at the D section of the manual and the Oracle Critical Patch Update notice. And the mystery fell apart.
The fixed bugs are listed in Changes in MySQL 5.1.61 (10 January 2012) and D.1.2. Changes in MySQL 5.5.20 (10 January 2012).

Twenty one not twenty seven. Cue dramatic music and insert several minutes of commercials here.
Well, back to our mystery show.
We have 21 out of 27 bugs from the latest Oracle Critical Patch Update notice and DD Cooper is still missing too. The Section D for MySQL 5.0.95 is not online. I will have to ask about that. Until I see the updated section D for MySQl 5.0.95, I will assume that the missing fixed bugs are in there. 5.0? Come on folks, you need to be running 5.5!
So, lets close this mystery for now and ask if Oracle DBAs get extra exercise by typing VARCHAR2 instead of VARCHAR.
