Comment 3 Luca Lesinigo 2008-11-14 14:49:13 UTC
Cannot reproduce on HPPA.

dev-db/mysql-5.0.60-r1
gcc-4.2.4, CFLAGS=CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=hppa2.0"

tested with the SELECT b''; and SELECT x''; queries.
Comment 4 Luca Lesinigo 2008-11-14 15:04:12 UTC
but I can confirm it on x86_64.

dev-db/mysql-5.0.60-r1
gcc-3.4.6-r2, CFLAGS=CXXFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -pipe -fforce-addr"
hardened profile

SELECT b''; will crash the server.
