We've not previously had explicit documentation on it because there's no strict ordering -- so we didn't specify it. I've pushed b49f950b to 4.0-trunk which gives a more explicit ordering.

I don’t think that’s what you intended to say. If you're upgrading MySQL 5.1 with RT 3.8.5, you should just follow the upgrading instructions in the README; UPGRADING.mysql does indeed not apply. So yes, you have interpreted as we intended. If you have suggested clarifications, I'd be glad to hear them. - Alex
