You should be careful when doing ALTER TABLE as table locks are not
replicated across mysql servers (yet).
There's information in the list archives on this topic - as well as in
the manual.
Also keep in mind that an ALTER TABLE creates a new table and copies
everything across - not exactly efficient for large tables. We are
working on making things more 'online' so that this copy doesn't occur.
