Description:
Due to
ChangeSet@1.1416.107.3, 2003-03-16 16:28:30+02:00,
Write binlog before commit when doing INSERT ... SELECT,

we write to the binlog before setting thd->last_insert_id, which
results in wrong SET INSERT_ID in the master's binlog.
Affects only 4.0.13, not 4.0.12. All table types (despite what
the original bug report on mysql@lists said) are affected.

How to repeat:
  CREATE TABLE source (
     a VARCHAR(50)
  );
 
  INSERT INTO source
  (a)
  VALUES
  ('1'), ('2');
 
  CREATE TABLE dest (
     id INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT,
     b VARCHAR(50)
  );
 
  INSERT INTO dest (b)
  SELECT a
    FROM source;

Then in table 'dest' on master we have
+----+------+
| id | b    |
+----+------+
|  1 | 1    |
|  2 | 2    |
+----+------+
and on slave:
+----+------+
| id | b    |
+----+------+
|  2 | 1    |
|  3 | 2    |
+----+------+

I have this problem too.
v 4.0.13. not InnoDB but MyISAM, Linux.
example:

create table _test1 select 'a' as c;
insert _test1 values ('b');
create table _test2 
 (Seq SMALLINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  PRIMARY key (Seq)) 

master:
select * from _test2;
+-----+---+
| Seq | c |
+-----+---+
|   1 | a |
|   2 | b |
+-----+---+

slave:
+-----+---+
| Seq | c |
+-----+---+
|   2 | a |
|   3 | b |
+-----+---+

I saw this very same issue with 4.0.9 with Innodb. I know that Slashdot had to upgrade one of the slave's this weekend to get around this (they upgraded to 4.0.12).

*Could* be bug 136 which is fixed in 4.0.12.
Bug 490 (this thread's bug) was introduced in 4.0.13.
