Comment 22 for bug 585688

I tried repeat this by creating and indentical table as you had above and did some 'show' commands, but could not repeat the failure.

If you could compile MariaDB with the -g or with 'BUILD/compile-pentium-debug' it could help us locate and fix this bug. (This would give us the line number where things goes wrong).

I just created a wiki page: http://askmonty.org/wiki/Reporting_bug with information of how to do the above.

Also knowing the exact query that causes the failure would be of great usage.
The easiest way to find this one, would be to start mysqld with --log. In this case you can find the offending query in the mysql-data-dir/hostname.log file.
