Bug #15630 Test case failure in sp-dynamic, sp-error, and sp

Description:
The test cases sp-dynamic, sp-error, and sp fail repeatably on various 64-bit platforms:

10712: sp-dynamic                     [ fail ]
10713: 
10714: Errors are (from /home/mysqldev/pegasos3-glibc23/test/mysql-max-5.0.17-linux-powerpc-glibc23/mysql-test/var/log/mysqltest-time) :
10715: mysqltest: Result length mismatch
10716: (the last lines may be the most important ones)
10717: Below are the diffs between actual and expected results:
