woohoo! - "Silent Column Specification Changes" :)
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/silent-column-changes.html
If any column in a table has a variable length, the entire row becomes
variable-length as a result. Therefore, if a table contains any
variable-length columns (VARCHAR, TEXT, or BLOB), all CHAR columns
longer than three characters are changed to VARCHAR columns.
These occur prior to MySQL 5.0.3. As of 5.0.3, an error occurs if a
column cannot be created using the specified data type.
Agreed, mysql is retarded
