Thanks! In this case I need to rewrite all client apps, something a kind of SELECT SUBSTRING_INDEX(USER(),/*!40100 _utf8*/'@',1); - at this point I rely on it that server ALWAYS must be under utf8. IMHO, explicit using of such constants in program code is very bad style: servers as well as clients can have different codepages (cp1251, koi8r etc (for me)). Why not return result of system functions according 'character_set_server' variable by deault? IMHO, it would be more correctly.
