I must agree that DISTINCT should behave like normal comparison, which is
dependant on the binary attribute. It would though be nice if you could compile
MySQL with binary as default, and then you would have to set ascii (or whatever)
explicit if you want to have non-binary strings. If this is already possible
then RTFM to me :)
