Description:
True since 3.23 but will be fixed in 4.0.

How to repeat:
Have a config file like this:
[client]
disable-local-infile
and use it in your client program with:
 mysql_options(m,MYSQL_READ_DEFAULT_FILE,"/tmp/my.cnf");
Then the client is still able to do LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE.

Suggested fix:
A forgotten ~ in libmysql.c; fixing it.
