I recently upgraded to 4.0.10, primarily in order to be able
to change my minimum word length on the fly. But I can't seem
to set the variable! It says it's there when I "show" it, but
not when I try to change it:

---
monopoly~ $ mysql -u root -p
Enter password: 
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 19 to server version: 4.0.10-gamma

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'version';
+---------------+--------------+
| Variable_name | Value        |
+---------------+--------------+
| version       | 4.0.10-gamma |
+---------------+--------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'ft_min%';
+-----------------+-------+
| Variable_name   | Value |
+-----------------+-------+
| ft_min_word_len | 4     |
+-----------------+-------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> SET ft_min_word_len=2;
ERROR 1193: Unknown system variable 'ft_min_word_len'
mysql> 
---

Any idea what could be causing this? I did a Google search and someone
reported the same problem on a different mailing list, but with no
answer.

Thanks.
