Sorry for the basic question, I _was_ confused by the ALTER docs. That worked fine,
thanks.

What about the manual entry for ALTER TABLE isn't clear? Here's
how you'd do it (assuming the table is named 'table_name'):
ALTER TABLE table_name CHANGE summary_path summary_path BLOB;
In the most recent versions of MySQL you could use:
ALTER TABLE table_name MODIFY summary_path BLOB;
