Description:
According to http://lists.mysql.com/internals/37640, this flag is not necessary. BDB is no longer supported.

Keeping it around can lead to regressions. We noticed a regression in 5.1.42 for storage engines that have this flag and implement handler::add_index. In sql_table.cc, line 7466, the value of "path + 1" should be replaced with "path".

It would be nice to just remove this flag so that these errors will not occur.

How to repeat:
n/a

Suggested fix:
