Yes, I know. I just would like to provide the information in the
CREATE TABLE definition and be able to retrieve it later.

Nothing more.

The manual says:

    In the near future we will extend the FOREIGN KEY implementation so
    that at least the information will be saved in the table specification
    file and may be retrieved by mysqldump and ODBC.

Maybe in version 4.0...
