Description:
I can't say "CREATE TABLE a LIKE b" if b is a partitioned table.

How to repeat:
mysql> CREATE TABLE TA (s1 INT) PARTITION BY HASH (s1);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.16 sec)

mysql> CREATE TABLE TA2 LIKE TA;
ERROR 1037 (HY001): Out of memory; restart server and try again (needed 129 bytes)

More or less new functionality was needed since this case wasn't taken into account
