This is security fix.
For complete changes, please refer
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/releasenotes-cs-5-0-67.html.
Here is a part of it.
Functionality added or changed:
Security Enhancement:
To enable stricter control over the location from which user-defined
functions can be loaded, the plugin_dir system variable has been
backported from MySQL 5.1. If the value is non-empty, user-defined
function object files can be loaded only from the directory named by this
variable. If the value is empty, the behavior that is used before 5.0.67
applies: The UDF object files must be located in a directory that is
searched by your system's dynamic linker. (Bug#37428)
Important Change: Incompatible Change:
The FEDERATED storage engine is now disabled by default in the .cnf files
shipped with MySQL distributions (my-huge.cnf, my-medium.cnf, and so
forth). This affects server behavior only if you install one of these
files. (Bug#37069)
Cluster API: Important Change:
Because NDB_LE_MemoryUsage.page_size_kb shows memory page sizes in bytes
rather than kilobytes, it has been renamed to page_size_bytes. The name
page_size_kb is now deprecated and thus subject to removal in a future
release, although it currently remains supported for reasons of backward
compatibility. See The Ndb_logevent_type Type, for more information about
NDB_LE_MemoryUsage. (Bug#30271)
Important Change:
Some changes were made to CHECK TABLE ... FOR UPGRADE and REPAIR TABLE
with respect to detection and handling of tables with incompatible .frm
files (files created with a different version of the MySQL server). These
changes also affect mysqlcheck because that program uses CHECK TABLE and
REPAIR table, and thus also mysql_upgrade because that program invokes
mysqlcheck.

wireless network models, and bug fixes.
Changes since 2.31:
Wireless shadowing bug fix; originally reported by Marcello Caleffi;
suggestion from Nicola Baldo applied
AODV bug fix from Marco Fiore
Add dynamic libraries patch from SIGNET group, University of Padova
Add 80211Ext models from Mercedes-Benz/Karlsruhe team
Add Ilango Purushothaman's 802.11 infrastructure mode support.
Add ns-2 TCP Linux patch and calendar scheduler improvements.
Enable Tk for ns-2.
Several changes to SCTP module, contributed by Nasif Ekiz and Protocol
Engineering Lab at the University of Delaware
New in the 0.9.4 x11vnc release:
Reverse VNC connections (-connect and -connect_or_exit options)
work in the -find and -create X session FINDCREATEDISPLAY
modes.
Reverse VNC connections (either normal or using SSL) can use a
Web Proxy, a SOCKS proxy, the UltraVNC repeater proxy,
an SSH connection, or even a CGI URL to make the outgoing
connection (-proxy option). Forward connections can
use the -ssh option to set up a reachable redirection.
Support for the ZYWRLE encoding is added, this is the RealVNC ZRLE
encoding extended to do motion video and photo regions
more efficiently by way of a Wavelet based transformation.
The session finding and creating modes (-find and -create) have
been improved to be more reliable and also provide a new
desktop types (xfce) and new service redirection options.
Support for indexed colormaps (PseudoColor) with depths other
than 8 is provided (depths 1 to 16 now work).
Java viewer applet source code is provided in the x11vnc 0.9.4
tarball so now everything can be built from source.
miscellaneous new features and changes:
To unset Caps_Lock, Num_Lock and raise all keys in the X server
use -clear_all, or by remote control 'x11vnc -R clear_all'
The -autoport option gives more control over the server port
range that probes.
The -ping option can be used to help keep idle connections alive.
The -finddpy and -listdpy utilities help to debug and configure
the -find, -create, and -display WAIT:... modes.
Some automatic detection of screen resizes are handled even if
the -xrandr option is not supplied.
The -advertise_truecolor option can workaround some VNC viewer
incompatibilities with PseudoColor.
The option '-clip xinerama0' can be used to clip to the first
Xinerama sub-screen, etc.
If a fast framebuffer read rate is detected the -wait and -defer
parameters are reduced to 10 and 15 msec, respectively.
Pasting of the selection/clipboard into remote applications
(e.g. Java) is improved.
Usage with dvorak keyboards is improved. The option -macuskbd is
available on MacOSX to use the original US keyboard code.
Via a compiler option (-DENABLE_GRABLOCAL) one can use the
-grablocal n option to filter VNC client input if someone
at the console has done mouse or keyboard input n secs ago.
The -sleepin option can now sleep a random amount of time between
min and max time delays (-sleepin min-max).
Merge from changes for read_plist from pkg_install-renovation to always
initialize the plist and add append_plist for the one case where this is
not desired. Fixes PR 39276.
change ${.CURDIR}/../... to ../../devel/scmgit/...; makes
a lot more sense.
Fixes since v1.6.0.1
--------------------
* Installation on platforms that needs .exe suffix to git-* programs were
broken in 1.6.0.1.
* Installation on filesystems without symbolic links support did nto
work well.
* In-tree documentations and test scripts now use "git foo" form to set a
better example, instead of the "git-foo" form (which is an acceptable
form if you have "PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH" in your script)
* Many commands did not use the correct working tree location when used
with GIT_WORK_TREE environment settings.
* Some systems needs to use compatibility fnmach and regex libraries
independent from each other; the compat/ area has been reorganized to
allow this.
* "git apply --unidiff-zero" incorrectly applied a -U0 patch that inserts
a new line before the second line.
* "git blame -c" did not exactly work like "git annotate" when range
boundaries are involved.
* "git checkout file" when file is still unmerged checked out contents from
a random high order stage, which was confusing.
* "git clone $there $here/" with extra trailing slashes after explicit
local directory name $here did not work as expected.
* "git diff" on tracked contents with CRLF line endings did not drive "less"
intelligently when showing added or removed lines.
* "git diff --dirstat -M" did not add changes in subdirectories up
correctly for renamed paths.
* "git diff --cumulative" did not imply "--dirstat".
* "git for-each-ref refs/heads/" did not work as expected.
* "git gui" allowed users to feed patch without any context to be applied.
* "git gui" botched parsing "diff" output when a line that begins with two
dashes and a space gets removed or a line that begins with two pluses
and a space gets added.
* "git gui" translation updates and i18n fixes.
* "git index-pack" is more careful against disk corruption while completing
a thin pack.
* "git log -i --grep=pattern" did not ignore case; neither "git log -E
--grep=pattern" triggered extended regexp.
* "git log --pretty="%ad" --date=short" did not use short format when
showing the timestamp.
* "git log --author=author" match incorrectly matched with the
timestamp part of "author " line in commit objects.
* "git log -F --author=author" did not work at all.
* Build procedure for "git shell" that used stub versions of some
functions and globals was not understood by linkers on some platforms.
* "git stash" was fooled by a stat-dirty but otherwise unmodified paths
and refused to work until the user refreshed the index.
* "git svn" was broken on Perl before 5.8 with recent fixes to reduce
use of temporary files.
* "git verify-pack -v" did not work correctly when given more than one
packfile.
Also contains many documentation updates.

Changes since 3.0.3:
BUG FIXES:
- Fixed a bug in the hard-linking code where it would sometimes try to
allocate 0 bytes of memory (which fails on some OSes, such as AIX).
- Fixed the hard-linking of files from a device that has a device number
of 0 (which seems to be a common device number on NetBSD).
- Fixed the handling of a --partial-dir that cannot be created. This
particularly impacts the --delay-updates option (since the files cannot
be delayed without a partial-dir), and was potentially destructive if
the --remove-source-files was also specified.
- Fixed a couple issues in the --fake-super handling of xattrs when the
destination files have root-level attributes (e.g. selinux values) that
a non-root copy can't affect.
- Improved the keep-alive check in the generator to fire consistently in
incremental-recursion mode when --timeout is enabled.
- The --iconv option now converts the content of a symlink too, instead
of leaving it in the wrong character-set (requires 3.0.4 on both sides
of the transfer).
- When using --iconv, if a filename fails to convert on the receiving side,
this no longer makes deletions in the root-dir of the transfer fail
silently (the user now gets a warning about deletions being disabled
due to IO error as long as --ignore-errors was not specified).
- When using --iconv, if a server-side receiver can't convert a filename,
the error message sent back to the client no longer mangles the name
with the wrong charset conversion.
- Fixed a potential alignment issue in the IRIX ACL code when allocating
the initial "struct acl" object. Also, cast mallocs to avoid warnings.
- Changed some errors that were going to stdout to go to stderr.
- Made human_num() and human_dnum() able to output a negative number
(rather than outputting a cryptic string of punctuation).
ENHANCEMENTS:
- Rsync will avoid sending an -e option to the server if an older protocol
is requested (and thus the option would not be useful). This lets the
user specify the --protocol=29 option to access an overly-restrictive
server that is rejecting the protocol-30 use of -e to the server.
- Improved the message output for an RERR_PARTIAL exit.
DEVELOPER RELATED:
- The Makefile will not halt for just a timestamp change on the Makefile
or the configure files, only for actual changes in content.
- Changed some commands in the testsuite's xattrs.test that called "rsync"
instead of "$RSYNC".
- Enhanced the release scripts to be able to handle a branch release and
to do even more consistency checks on the files.
