 C.4 Libraries used by and included with MySQL
 =============================================
 
 The following is a list of the creators of the libraries we have
 included with the MySQL server source to make it easy to compile and
 install MySQL. We are very thankfully to all individuals that have
 created these and it has made our life much easier.
 
    * Fred Fish
 
      For his excellent C debugging and trace library. Monty has made a
      number of smaller improvements to the library (speed and
      additional options).
 
    * Richard A. O'Keefe
 
      For his public domain string library.
 
    * Henry Spencer
 
      For his regex library, used in `WHERE column REGEXP regexp'.
 
    * Chris Provenzano
 
      Portable user level pthreads. From the copyright: This product
      includes software developed by Chris Provenzano, the University of
      California, Berkeley, and contributors. We are currently using
      version 1_60_beta6 patched by Monty (see
      `mit-pthreads/Changes-mysql').
 
    * Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler
 
      For the zlib library (used on MySQL on Windows).
 
    * Bjorn Benson
 
      For his safe_malloc (memory checker) package which is used in when
      you configure MySQL with -debug.
 
    * Free Software Foundation
 
      The `readline' library (used by the `mysql' command-line client).
 
    * The NetBSD foundation
 
      The `libedit' package (optionally used by the `mysql' command-line
