Description:
Hello

The following patch was submitted for my Debian packages and are supposed to make it
possible to build MySQL on GNU/kFreeBSD which is a system with a Debian like Linux
userland with a FreeBSD kernel.
I'm not running it but the patch did no harm in the last month and Debian MySQL packages
are built and run on at least 12 different architectures :)

bye,

-christian-

How to repeat:
Build on GNU/kFreeBSD.
