[Centos] mysql default collation

[joey at clean.q7.com (Joe Pruett)]

this is a double upstream issue (mysql default), but the default collation
for mysql is latin1_swedish_ci.  it seems like latin1_general_ci would
make a lot more sense since all the other charsets use the general
collation.  it is easy to fix in my.cnf:
collation_server=latin1_general_ci

does anyone else think this is worth whining at mysql or redhat about?
