Description:
The mysqld will not properly exit the process when being shutdown. It will however take down it's socket, clean up most of it's resources and write a "Shutdown completed" message to stderr, but after that nothing more happens. This occurs about every third shutdown.

The symptoms of this can bee seen in extra long run- and shutdown-times when running the test suites with mysql-test-run.pl as reported by BUG#28742.

This is most likely caused by one thread not proeprly exiting and thus the mysqld is waiting for that thread indefinitely before exiting.

How to repeat:
Run the test suite as reported in BUG#28742 - or with the patch for that bug an error message will be printed about the process being hard killed.

Suggested fix:
Signal the stray thread to exit.

Raise to P1 since it causes a lot of troubles for auto testing.
