This is the MySQL filesystem engine corrected to now work. The original code is still available on
Google code at:

http://code.google.com/p/mysql-filesystem-engine/

To install the engine, simply do the following:

$ sh config/bootstrap
$ ./configure --with-mysql=/path/to/mysql/source/code
$ make

Then copy the generated .so files to your MySQL plugin directory.

$ cp src/.libs/libfilesystem_engine.so* /path/to/mysql/install/lib/mysql/plugin

Then, install the plugin at the MySQL command line:

mysql> INSTALL PLUGIN filesystem SONAME 'libfilesystem_engine.so';
