Description:
The --big-test switch does not work anymore for mysql-test-run.pl

How to repeat:
Create test file big_test.test

hakan@lu0008:~/work/mysql/mysql-5.1/mysql-test> more t/big_test.test
# Test whether --big-test switch of mysql-test-run.pl works

--source include/big_test.inc

Try to run it with mysql-test-run.pl

hakan@lu0008:~/work/mysql/mysql-5.1/mysql-test> ./mysql-test-run.pl big_test
Logging: ./mysql-test-run.pl big_test

All 0 tests were successful.

Which means we need the --big-test switch. Let's try it with the switch:
hakan@lu0008:~/work/mysql/mysql-5.1/mysql-test> ./mysql-test-run.pl --big-test big_test
Logging: ./mysql-test-run.pl --big-test big_test

Errors are (from /home/hakan/work/mysql/mysql-5.1/mysql-test/var/log/mysqltest-time) :
/home/hakan/work/mysql/mysql-5.1/client/.libs/lt-mysqltest: unknown option '--big-test'
(the last lines may be the most important ones)

Aborting: big_test failed in default mode. To continue, re-run with '--force'.
Stopping All Servers
