    BUG#11763201 PLEASE REMOVE CLIENT PROGRAM VERSIONS · 7597482c
    Erlend Dahl authored
    Problem: a number of mysql clients and utilities report a version
    string when for instance started with the '-V' option. The version
    numbers reported aren't consistently updated and don't make sense any
    more. Also, the version strings vary with respect to punctuation and
    use of parentheses. This looks untidy and not very professional.
    
    Solution: keep the version string reported by the server, and make
    that the standard for all clients/utilities. Do not report specific
    version numbers.
    
    The patch also adds the standard Oracle welcome notice to a few
    clients that didn't use it.
