create.alterTable("preferences").alterColumn("name").defaultValue("abc"
).execute();


=> alter table `preferences` change column `name` `name` set default 'abc'

=> You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds 
to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'default 
'abc'' at line 1

MySQL has three different syntaxes depending on what you're trying to do. 
 It appears that JOOQ is using the wrong one when trying to set the default 
value.

  | ALTER [COLUMN] *col_name* {SET DEFAULT *literal* | DROP DEFAULT}
  | CHANGE [COLUMN] *old_col_name* *new_col_name* *column_definition*
        [FIRST|AFTER *col_name*]
  | MODIFY [COLUMN] *col_name* *column_definition*
        [FIRST | AFTER *col_name*]


The generated SQL should be:  alter table `preferences` alter column `name` 
set default 'abc'

There is an example very similar to this in the documentation which 
suggests that it is intended to work.
