Description:
skip_name_resolve's  bug!!!

mysqld version=5.0.51 GA
os=windows,linux

bug1:
in linux,i write "skip_name_resolve = ON"  or  "skip-name-resolve = ON" in /etc/my.cnf ,
mysqld can not start,error log say:"option '--skip-name-resolve' cannot take an argument"
but mysql handbook "Table 5.1. Option/Variable Summary" say: skip-name-resolve can be write in Option file.

in windows,mysql root>SET GLOBAL skip_name_resolve = ON;
ERROR 1238 (HY000): Variable 'skip_name_resolve' is a read only variable

how can i set "skip_name_resolve" on ?

mysqld.exe can not start,and nothing in error log!!!

How to repeat:

just because mysql handbook write not clearly,then some one of mysql users write Variable wrong.
a same Variable in my.cnf,
linux version mysql-5.1.51 can write error message in error log,
but windows version mysql-5.1.51 write nothing in error log,
this not bug???
mysql server can not start,nothing in error log,not a bug?
