I believe MySQL has had subqueries for a long time now, and I
think they might have stored procedures.  They also have clustering
in their latest version.  In terms of adding features, MySQL seems
fastest.  According to the speech given by David Axmark at
FOSSCON2003, MySQL has never had any significant complaints about 
data loss that could be attributed to the database (as long as 
you use stable, not alpha or beta versions).
