Bug Description
Binary package hint: mysql-client-5.1
Connecting to an old (4.0) mysql server. Segfault when using the "status" command. I also find that mysql-admin crashes when trying to look at the server status, and I presume it is the same problem.
This is using Ubuntu 9.10 as the client OS (server is on windows).
Here is a copy of my login session:
steve@dingly:~$ mysql -h 1.2.3.4 -u xxxxxxxx -p -C
Enter password:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 9966075
Server version: 4.0.22-debug-log
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the current input statement.
