Issue Summary

As I previously mentioned incorrectly in http://drupal.org/node/298391, apparently defaults on TEXT fields prevent the installation of some tables (namely menu_router and perhaps one other that I no longer recall). The attached patch successfully led to the installation of a brand new HEAD.

Never mind.

BLOB and TEXT columns cannot have DEFAULT values.

Committed to CVS HEAD.

Huh? Do we really want that? I was under the impression that some discussion was going on to treat that as the database engine level.
