How to repeat:
run this against a debug server:

drop table if exists `t1`;
create table `t1`(`a` char(1),fulltext(`a`))engine=myisam;
select 1 from `t1` where match(a) against ('')
and row(`a`,`a`)>row(1,1);

      Bug #49445: Assertion failed: 0, file .\item_row.cc, line 55 with
        fulltext search and row op.
      
      The search for fulltext indexes is searching for some special 
      predicate layouts. While doing so it's not checking for the number
      of columns of the expressions it tries to calculate.
      And since row expressions can't return a single scalar value there
      was a crash.
      Fixed by checking if the expressions are scalar (in addition to 
      being constant) before calling Item::val_xxx() methods.
