As I can see (without going deep through innobase's sources
and ha_innobase.cc) the trouble was at rem0cmp.c
(cmp_whole_field()). Because I've uses koi8_ru charset as
default, innobase uses DATA_VARMYSQL for varchar fields (and
DATA_VARCHAR for fields with charset latin1) which is not
listed in case() switch (found DATA_MYSQL only). Looking in
innobase_mysql_cmp() I've see that it supports for both
fixed and variable-length strings, so I've just added
DATA_VARMYSQL together with DATA_MYYSQL to the case in
cmp_whole_field().
Patch file is attached.
PS: Innobase handler is too slow comparing with
ISAM/MyISAM...
WBR,
Paul.
