Re: [fpc-pascal]MySQL 4.0 Files

IIRC, besides adding new data fields, they even changed the field order 
(!) in their communication structs between minor versions like from 3.22 
to 3.23 - breaking the fpc mysql units every couple of month. Not very 
programmer friendly...

This will allow developers to insert a

that's what I tried when porting the old 3.21 (?) unit to version 3.23 
some time ago. But you'll end up with a lot of defined at their release 
(and change!) rate ;-(
