Description:
Hi,

MySQL could crash when a trigger invoke the DROP of another trigger.
BTW the error displayed in my testcase seems to be weird ?

Regards,
  Jocelyn

How to repeat:
delimiter ;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t2;
CREATE TABLE t1 (a int);
CREATE TABLE t2 (a int);
delimiter //
CREATE TRIGGER test BEFORE INSERT ON t1 FOR EACH ROW BEGIN DROP TRIGGER test1; END //
CREATE TRIGGER test1 BEFORE INSERT ON t2 FOR EACH ROW BEGIN DROP TRIGGER test; END //
delimiter ;
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1);//
ERROR 1100 (HY000): Table 't2' was not locked with LOCK TABLES
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1);//
ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server during query

(the crash could occur after several try of this command - I assume there's a memory corruption somewhere)
