Description:
Test build of 5.1, based on ChangeSet
  1.1944 05/10/28 13:49:41 ramil@mysql.com +7 -0
  WL #528: Faster free_tmp_table

"Configure" on the target platforms fails with this message:
config.status: error: cannot find input file: storage/ndb/Makefile.in

On checking, it is really not found in the source tar.gz - in fact, no file below "storage/ndb" is contained. 
The same holds for "storage/innobase" and "storage/bdb".

How to repeat:
bk export
BUILD/compile-dist
make dist

Suggested fix:
Modify "storage/Makefile.am":
Add "ndb", "innobase", "bdb" to the "DIST_SUBDIRS" list.

There has been parallel work on this bug.

As last part of the fix, "storage/bdb/build_unix/.IGNORE_ME" has been introduced into 5.1 like it was in earlier versions.
As a result, the 5.1 source tarball does not have any empty directories.
