PS: Can I just download the new MySQL and copy the files to the mysql directory, or do I need to re-install XAMPP?
Worth a try, though I’ve not tried it myself. I installed 1.6.5 a while back and couldn’t get stuff to work, so I went back to my 1.6.3 installation (but I keep all my xampp versions installed so I can easily test against various configurations). I had no idea it was a MySQL bug, but that’s a particularly nasty one IMHO and reinforces my belief that staying just behind the adoption curve of the latest releases is where I need to be.
