> Bug#33873: Fast ALTER TABLE doesn't work with multibyte character sets
>
> This is a tentative fix to spark discussing with reviewers,
> please disregard.
>
> The problem was that when comparing tables for a possible
> fast alter table, the comparison was being performed using
> the parsed information and not the final definition.
>
> The solution is to use the possible final table layout to
> compare if a fast alter is possible or not.
>
> per-file messages:
> mysql-test/include/mix1.inc
> Tweaky test case to trigger Bug 21704
> sql/sql_table.cc
> Use updated (final) information to compare fields.
