There is no crash if I
- use the default COLLATION_CONNECTION "latin1_swedish_ci"
or
- use a server compiled without "debug"
  Here I get
  CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE t1 AS
  SELECT HEX(WEIGHT_STRING('abc', 1, 2, 0xC0)) AS my_col;
  Warnings:
  Warning 1366 Incorrect string value: '\x30\x30'
          for column 'my_col' at row 1
  which is also suspicious because a
  SELECT HEX(WEIGHT_STRING('abc', 1, 2, 0xC0)) AS my_col;
  gets a
  my_col
  00

My environment:
- mysql-azalea May 2009
  compile-pentium64-max, compile-pentium64-debug-max
- Linux OpenSuSE 11.0 64 Bit

How to repeat:
SET COLLATION_CONNECTION=utf32_general_ci;
--disable_warnings
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1;
--enable_warnings
let $my_select= SELECT HEX(WEIGHT_STRING('abc', 1, 2, 0xC0)) AS my_col;
eval $my_select;
eval CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE t1 AS $my_select;
DROP TEMPORARY TABLE t1;

Suggested fix:
Please achieve the following
1. Consistent behavior for
   CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE t1 AS
   SELECT HEX(WEIGHT_STRING('abc', 1, 2, 0xC0)) AS my_col;
   and
   SELECT HEX(WEIGHT_STRING('abc', 1, 2, 0xC0)) AS my_col;
   like both get similar errors/warnings/success.
2. No crash for server compiled with "debug"

I get the same bad effects for "utf32_unicode_ci".

      Bug#45263 utf32_general_ci, bad effects around CREATE TABLE AS SELECT
      Problem: Item_func_hex::val_str() returned data in ASCII format,
      which did not match collation.collation pointing to my_charset_utf32_general_ci.
      Fix: changing parent class of Item_func_hex to Item_str_ascii_func,
      as val_str() implementation is heavily ASCII-oriented.

        - Changing parent class to Item_str_ascii_func
        - Clean-up in Item_func_hex::fix_length_and_dec()
          Using fix_char_length() instead of setting max_length directly.

The same crash happens in 5.5 without using WEIGHT_STRING() function.

SET collation_connection=utf32_general_ci;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1;
CREATE TABLE t1 AS SELECT hex(0x00);

Noted in 5.5.6, 5.6.1 changelogs.

With character_set_connection set to utf16 or utf32, CREATE TABLE t1
AS SELECT HEX() ... caused a server crash.
