mysql 中无法设置默认值为函数或者表达式，如果你强制设置时，就会报错误：#1067 - Invalid default value。
这不是mysql的bug，而是故意这么设计的。参看：
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/data-type-defaults.html
这里写道：
"The DEFAULT value clause in a data type specification indicates a default value for a
column. With one exception, the default value must be a constant; it cannot be a function
or an expression. This means, for example, that you cannot set the default for a date
column to be the value of a function such as NOW() or CURRENT_DATE."
简单来说就是默认值不能是函数和表达式，所有才有上面的错误信息。
下面是一个例子，不使用函数和表达式的默认值：
