Hi,

I'll try, but since it's a 'production' system I can't experiment too much.

It says:
The only case in which you cannot use --skip-external-locking is ... if you run myisamchk to check (not repair) a table without telling the server to flush and lock the tables first.

Isn't that what's being done here?
AFAIK that script checks (not repairs) and I didn't see any code to flush and lock tables.

BTW, sorry for the wrong from address in the bug report.
