A custom parser for detecting "set sql_mode=ORACLE" is needed
and writing that is C++ is more convenient than writing it in
C. Consequently, so as to be able to use that parser, mysql_client
must be compiled as C++.
The MySQLCommon library contains functions used by both the protocol and
authenticator modules. The contents of the modutil.c file could also be
moved to this file if the functions in that file are only used by modules
and not the core.
