Description:
mysqld command line help says this about the ansi option:

  -a, --ansi          Use ANSI SQL syntax instead of MySQL syntax.

it should also tell that this option sets the isolation level to SERIALIZABLE
as documented in http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/ANSI_mode.html

How to repeat:
mysqld --help --verbose
