Description:
For the past several days, the bk sources for 4.1.2 have failed to build on OS X 10.3.4.  The following 
show the problem area:

How to repeat:

./configure --with-ndbcluster --enable-thread-safe-client

make

cd

Suggested fix:

The build is failing when attempting to create the linked executable mysql_tzinfo_to_sql.  It appears 
that the unreferenced symbol errors that are causing the build to fail are caused by the failure of the 
build process to define TZINFO2SQL during the compilation of the object file tztime.cc.  Manually 
compiling tzinfo.cc with this define eliminates the unreferenced symbols and executable successfully 
builds.  Makefile.am appears to contain the necessary information to include the above define during 
the build process.  However, I'm not sure why it fails to do so.  It would also seem that tztime.o would 
need to be rebuilt later without this define for inclusion in the mysqld executable.

This can be fixed by upgrading automake/autconf (I upgraded to 1.8/2.59).
There is however a fix pending to be pushed (so that you don't have to upgrade automake/autconf)

Thanks for the report. Dmitri, I think this one is already solved by now,
correct?

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has been committed to our
source repository of that product and will be incorporated into the
next release.

If necessary, you can access the source repository and build the latest
available version, including the bugfix, yourself. More information 
about accessing the source trees is available at
    http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Installing_source_tree.html
