Description:
There is no documentation of the "--federated" option on http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/mysqld-option-tables.html , though the manual page for FEDERATED references this new option:

"Beginning with MySQL 5.1.26, the FEDERATED  storage engine is not enabled by default in the running server; to enable FEDERATED, you must start the MySQL server binary using the --federated option."

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/federated-storage-engine.html

How to repeat:
Look at the docs.

Suggested fix:
Add --federated option documentation.

The --federated option has been added to the list of valid options, and should appear in the table
