C++ to C code conversion job.
The job consists in the conversion of the C++ code of MySQL Server 5.0.24a into C code. The use of an automatic conversion software is required to be limited because the resulting code should be readable and editable.
Searching and backporting of the most important fixes made in the more recent versions.
Cleaning of any unused routines and extensions.
Cleaning of the DL subsystem (to avoid a dependency with -ldl)
You will start with a cleaned fork that would compile directly from a bash script.
The target would be a server ready to be compiled with GCC and dietlibc on a GNU/Linux x86 platform.
