Description:
make test dies with "mysql-4.0.15/mysql-test/var/run/master.pid was
not created in 30 seconds;  Aborting" if --with-extra-charsets=none and --with-charset=<a_valid_charset> is specified at configure time.

depending on your only selected charset at compile time (and disabling extra charsets) make test will die on certain character set tests.

How to repeat:
./configure --with-extra-charsets=none --with-charset=latin1
make all
make test

Suggested fix:
add a check to determine what value was passed to --with-extra-charsets and --with-charset and skip the charset tests that would be invalid for the chosen config.
