How to repeat:
CREATE TABLE `price_log` (                                      
  `Item` char(20) NOT NULL default '',                          
  `Started` datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00', 
  `Price` decimal(16,3) NOT NULL default '0.000',                 
  PRIMARY KEY  (`Item`,`Started`)                     
) ENGINE=MyISAM;   

insert into price_log values
("A1","2005-11-01 08:00:00",1000),
("A1","2005-11-15 00:00:00",2000),
("A1","2005-12-12 08:00:00",3000),
("A2","2005-12-01 08:00:00",1000);

mysql> select *
    -> from price_log
    -> where
    -> item="A1"
    -> and started<="2005-12-01 24:00:00";
Empty set, 2 warnings (0.00 sec)

mysql> drop index `PRIMARY` on price_log;
Query OK, 4 rows affected (0.01 sec)
Records: 4  Duplicates: 0  Warnings: 0
mysql> select * from price_log where item="A1" and started<="2005-12-01 24:00:00";
+------+---------------------+----------+
| Item | Started             | Price    |
+------+---------------------+----------+
| A1   | 2005-11-01 08:00:00 | 1000.000 |
| A1   | 2005-11-15 00:00:00 | 2000.000 |
+------+---------------------+----------+
2 rows in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)

After dropping the index we're getting results, while with index we're getting an empty set!

Suggested fix:
Fix this, so resutls with index and without index are the same.

  Fixed bug #16249: different results for a range with an without index 
  when a range condition use an invalid DATETIME constant.
  Now we do not use invalid DATETIME constants to form end keys for
  range intervals: range analysis just ignores predicates with such
  constants.
