Description:
This looks similar to bug #31160 and bug #31160 .  Those two testcases don't crash anymore, so I'm opening a new bug for this one.

Version: '5.1.23-rc-debug'  socket: ''  port: 3307  Source distribution
Assertion failed: 0, file .\filesort.cc, line 740

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

How to repeat:
#on debug build of mysqld run this:

drop table if exists `t1`;
create table `t1` (`a` int not null)engine=myisam;
insert ignore into `t1` values (0),(0);
select 1 from `t1` order by (updatexml(`a`,'1','1'));

  Fix for bug #32557: order by updatexml causes assertion in filesort
  
  Problem: even if an Item_xml_str_func successor returns NULL, it doesn't have 
  a corresponding property (maybe_null) set, that leads to a failed assertion.
  
  Fix: set nullability property of Item_xml_str_func.
