Description:
I'm using the export "SQL ALTER script".
Everything's okay but one thing.

On one table, I have two foreign keys, and this table has changed (ON CASCADE stuff for a foreign key).

Here's the generation :
--=================================
ALTER TABLE `myschema`.`rss` DROP FOREIGN KEY `USER_RSS_LINK` ;

ALTER TABLE `myschema`.`rss`
  ADD CONSTRAINT `USER_RSS_LINK`
  FOREIGN KEY (`user_idFK` )
  REFERENCES `myschema`.`users` (`user_id` )
  ON DELETE CASCADE
, DROP INDEX `WEBSITE_RSS_LINK`
, DROP PRIMARY KEY
, ADD PRIMARY KEY (`rss_id`, `user_idFK`, `website_idFK`) ;
--=================================

Here's what I have done (it works) :

--=================================
ALTER TABLE `myschema`.`rss` DROP FOREIGN KEY `USER_RSS_LINK` ;
ALTER TABLE `myschema`.`rss` DROP FOREIGN KEY `WEBSITE_RSS_LINK` ;

ALTER TABLE `myschema`.`rss`
  ADD CONSTRAINT `USER_RSS_LINK`
  FOREIGN KEY (`user_idFK` )
  REFERENCES `myschema`.`users` (`user_id` )
  ON DELETE CASCADE
, DROP INDEX `WEBSITE_RSS_LINK`
, DROP PRIMARY KEY
, ADD PRIMARY KEY (`rss_id`, `user_idFK`, `website_idFK`) ;

ALTER TABLE `myschema`.`rss`
  ADD CONSTRAINT `WEBSITE_RSS_LINK`
  FOREIGN KEY (`website_idFK` )
  REFERENCES `myschema`.`websites` (`website_id` );
--=================================

------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------

MySQL 5.1.30-community via TCP/IP on localhost.
MySQL Client Version 5.1.11
Mysql Query 1.2.12 to test the sql scripts generated by MySQL workbench. 

How to repeat:
I had other "on cascade" stuff, and the alter script generation has worked on it, so I think that there's a bug when :
  - there is a table with 2 foreign keys (with no "cascade" stuff on it)
  - You generate the "sql CREATE script" : sql-create.sql
  - you add to one of these foreign keys a "on delete cascade" property
  - you generate the "sql ALTER script" with the "sql-create.sql" file
  - create the database with the first sql script
  - alter the database with the alter script
==> Error 1025 

Suggested fix:
Drop all the foreign keys of the table if one of them has changed.
Then alter the table with every foreign key.
