Missed a couple:

castor:/home/karthik/public_html/projects/cvs/drupal # grep -in text database/database.mysql | grep -i default
136:  pages text DEFAULT '' NOT NULL
500:  explanation TEXT default NULL,

Cheers,

This is not an 'academic' issue: on certain MySQL 5 installations (strict mode), it will cause installation to fail.

For an example of failure see http://drupal.org/node/98981
