There is no guarantee about the order in which the option files in the

That's awful....particularly the "we have no idea in which order those
files are read".  I thought that's what --defaults-file-extra was for.

+100 to rip it out.


The key issue is easy to fix, process in alphabetical order.

Can you put the defaults extra foo in a my.cnf?
Think for instance of identical slaves, apart from server-id, report- host, and the like. They could share most of the config (with revision control, synchronised) and then have a file with the few differences.
If it's mysqld cmdline, you'd need to hack startup scripts.


Cheers,
Arjen.
