Description:
Simply using ./configure followed by make results in link failure of mysqld:

set_var.o: In function `global constructors keyed to bool_type_names':
set_var.cc:(.text+0x8be8): undefined reference to `srv_flush_log_at_trx_commit'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
gmake[4]: *** [mysqld] Error 1

How to repeat:
clone 5.1

BUILD/autorun.sh
./configure
make

Suggested fix:
Innobase specific variables should be properly wrapped in #ifdef...

I get this same error from a bk pull of 5.2 taken this afternoon.

Patch submitted to main tree.  Magnus and Elliot have been in touch to review and test patch.

I took BK pulls of 5.1 and 5.2 this morning. 5.1 builds fine, 5.2 still has this same problem.

This have been fixed in 5.1 and is no longer a showstopper for 5.1, thus move it to 5.2.

No changelog entry needed (even though it's a showstopper,
because it can't have affected a previous version).

I am able to get a good build of 5.2 now.
