Description:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Variables.html

User variable names are not case insensitive beginning with MySQL 5.0. Before that, they are case sensitive.

The two sentences above contradict each other due to a possible typo.

How to repeat:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Variables.html

User variable names are not case insensitive beginning with MySQL 5.0. Before that, they are case sensitive.

The two sentences above contradict each other due to a possible typo.

Suggested fix:
Change 'insensitive' in the first sentence to 'sensitive' or remove 'not' from it.
