AFAIK it has never been used.

One use occurred to me, and I was thinking of this, to set "date_format" in the
configuration file, and pass it to function "date_format":

mysql> select date_format(now(),@@date_format), @@date_format;
+----------------------------------+---------------+
| date_format(now(),@@date_format) | @@date_format |
+----------------------------------+---------------+
| 2012/2/6                         | %Y/%c/%e      |
+----------------------------------+---------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

I have so set it in my configuration file, but have made no use of it other than this
test.
