MySQL specific: $wgDBmysql4
Set to true to use enhanced fulltext search.
Introduced in version: pre 1.1.0
Removed in version: 1.6.0 (but is retained for extension compatibility, see below)
Allowed Values: (boolean)
Default Value: false
(set to true from 1.6.0 - see below)

[edit] Details

On versions of MediaWiki supporting MySQL 3.23.x, certain enhanced features like the boolean-mode fulltext search are used when this variable is set.

While still set for compatibility, the value is now ignored as of MediaWiki 1.6.0 since MySQL 3.x is no longer supported. From 1.6.0 the default value is set to true for compatibility reasons (so that extensions that check for the value of this setting get the right answer).
