Bug #31823 JDBC setNull throws ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

Description:
Problem occurs when a stored FUNCTION (not PROCEDURE) is addressed as a
CallableStatement and setNull() is called to set a field null.  It seems
apparent when the LAST field in the row is set null, at least.

Inspection of code in PreparedStatement.java suggests that the member
array isNull[] is not constructed long enough (this may not be the sole
problem).  The behavior seems not to obtain in PROCEDURES, but FUNCTIONS;
is there an issue with dealing with the return value?

How to repeat:
The following Java code (please insert correct local connection values)
illustrates the problem with output thus:

[machine prompt]$ java TestMySQL
database=MySQL version 5.0.46-enterprise-gpl-log
driver=MySQL-AB JDBC Driver version mysql-connector-java-5.0.8 ( Revision: ${svn.Revision} )
id=1
This next call to setNull() will throw ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException. Why?
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 2

        at TestMySQL.runTest(TestMySQL.java:52)

Test code was provided my Marc Gfeller.

Patch tested here today and looks like good output.
We are using the patched connector and await the
containing release.
Thank you!!

A note has been added to the 5.1.6 changelog: 

Using CallableStatement.setNull() on a stored function would throw an ArrayIndexOutOfBounds exception when setting the last parameter to null.
