Bug Description

Global symbol "$cnfext" requires explicit package name at /usr/bin/mysql_install_db line 911.
Global symbol "$cnfext" requires explicit package name at /usr/bin/mysql_install_db line 911.
Execution of /usr/bin/mysql_install_db aborted due to compilation errors.

hidden define is line 462
462:my $cnfext = ( $O =~ m/(MSWin32|cygwin)$/ ) ? "ini" : "cnf";

perhaps it's an upstream bug or just incomplete merge from upstream //need to check

Percona Server version is 5.6.17-65.0

There's no such variable in 5.5 (5.1), so it's applicable only to 5.6.
