OS X 10.1.5 Missing Data Problem -- Where does zBooterMnt come from ---: msg#00054

Subject: OS X 10.1.5 Missing Data Problem -- Where does zBooterMnt come from ---- will HAVE_BROKEN_REALPATH fix it?
Hello,


I am running MYSQL 3.23.49 built from source using this command.

./configure --/prefix=/shipstore

 
My system:

G4 Macintosh (single CPU)
OS X Version:       10.1.5
Dev Tools Version:  April2002DevTools.dmg



About once per week, mysql loses its memory of where the databases are
stored on the hard disk...

Once the problem occurs the only database that is visible from within mysql
is the database called:  zBooterMnt which is not one of my databases and
does not live anywhere on my hard drive!

This appears to be the same issue documented by Dan S. Camper <dan@xxxxxxx>

  http://lists.mysql.com/cgi-ez/ezmlm-cgi?1:mss:106609

And seams closely related issues with BSDi.

I am hoping  (based on a similar problem on os x server 1.0)  that compiling
mysql with this command:

  setenv CFLAGS "-DHAVE_BROKEN_REALPATH"  ; ./configure --/prefix=/shipstore

Will fix the problem...

Am I right? 

If I am right... It brings up 2 questions...

1)  shouldn't the default ./configure command set the
"-DHAVE_BROKEN_REALPATH" flag automatically on os x?

2) should the fact that "define HAVE_REALPATH 1" is commented out in
config.h  mean that the real path problem should not occur on os x?

What is the best work around for this issue?  Will a fix be rolled in?
