I would like to nominate this bug for a SRU in regards to Ubuntu 8.04, using the same patch which was applied to mysql-dfsg-5.0 in Ubuntu 9.04. This on the basis of FTBFS(Fails To Build From Source). Right now I'm working on a SRU proposal for bug #296952, and no matter what there will likely be other updates which has to be applied to MySQL during the Hardy lifespan.
TEST CASE: Do a normal build of 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.4 and it will fail, due to failed ssl tests. Applying this patch will make these tests pass fine.
I have a hard time seeing any regression potential considering this only affects a test certificate used during build tests, which fails anyway.
I'm attaching a debdiff addressed to hardy-proposed.
