Description:
memset(FileName, sizeof(FileName), 0);

wrong order of arguments, ups!

How to repeat:
less DictTabInfo.cpp

Suggested fix:

Thank you for the report.

Verified as described using last BK sources:

ssmirnova@shella ~/mysql-5.1f
$cat storage/ndb/src/common/debugger/signaldata/DictTabInfo.cpp | grep memset
  memset(TableName, 0, sizeof(TableName));//TableName[0] = 0;
  memset(PrimaryTable, 0, sizeof(PrimaryTable));//PrimaryTable[0] = 0; // Only used when "index"
  memset(FrmData, 0, sizeof(FrmData));
  memset(FragmentData, 0, sizeof(FragmentData));
  memset(ReplicaData, 0, sizeof(ReplicaData));
  memset(RangeListData, 0, sizeof(RangeListData));
  memset(TablespaceData, 0, sizeof(TablespaceData));
  memset(AttributeName, 0, sizeof(AttributeName));//AttributeName[0] = 0;
  memset(AttributeDefaultValue, 0, sizeof(AttributeDefaultValue));//AttributeDefaultValue[0] = 0;
  memset(FilegroupName, 0, sizeof(FilegroupName));
  memset(TS_DataGrow.GrowPattern, 0, sizeof(TS_DataGrow.GrowPattern));
  memset(FileName, sizeof(FileName), 0);
