Description:
Server reports that lower_case_table_names system variables does not exist.

How to repeat:
set global lower_case_table_names = 2

or 

set lower_case_table_names = 2

/* both return

Error Code : 1193
Unknown system variable 'lower_case_table_names'
(0 ms taken)
*/

Suggested fix:
error msg. should rather read somewhat like

"This system variable must be specified at Server startup."
