maybe same underlying cause as bug #31070 "crash during conversion of charsets"

---------------------------------
testcase1
---------------------------------
drop table if exists `t1`;
create table `t1` (`col001` set('a') charset gb2312 collate gb2312_bin not null )engine=myisam;
insert into `t1` values (),();
select col001 sounds like col001 from t1;

could be the same cause as the more generic bug #31070 "crash during conversion of charsets" .

character sets (big5, cp932, euckr, gb2312, sjis) for empty strings
or during evaluation of SOUNDS LIKE.
