Description:
If a function returns BIT(8), the server crashes when I invoke the function. 
 
It's not impossible that this is in the same area as bug#3788, but it doesn't look like
the same 
bug. 
 

How to repeat:
mysql> create function fbit () returns bit(8) return 'a' ; 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) 
 
mysql> select fbit(); 
ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server during query
