Bug Description

The patching instructions to prepare MySQL source for xtrabackup build in BUILD.txt say the following:

3. For 5.1x you need to apply a patch.
   From the innobase directory, apply the xtrabackup patch.
  e.g. #patch -p2 < xtrabackup-0.0/fix_innodb_for_backup51.patch

Those instructions are out of date and the patch fails to apply. The correct command is:

patch -p1 < storage/innobase/xtrabackup-1.5/fix_innodb_for_backup55.patch

for version 5.5 and

patch -p1 < storage/innobase/xtrabackup-1.5/fix_innodb_for_backup55.patch

for version 5.1, and both should be applied from the MySQL source root.

Additional note:
BUILD.TXT should contain also instruction for scripted build process and manual one.
The documentation in subject file should be in sync with http://www.percona.com/docs/wiki/percona-xtrabackup:installation:from-source.
