Description:
The documentation for mysqldump at

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mysqldump.html

states
--master-data[=value]
...
If the option value is equal to 2, the CHANGE MASTER statement is written as an SQL
comment. (This is the default action if value is omitted.)

However, leaving out the value is actually equivalent to option 1, i.e. the CHANGE MASTER
is not a comment.

How to repeat:
View documentation for mysqldump.

Suggested fix:

I've updated the manual to reflect the true default (i.e. unspecified) value.
