Description:
Trying to restore from 5.1 to 5.0 I got the following error:

[ndbdev@ndb15 space]$ ndb_restore -c ndb15:14000 -n 2 -b 1 -m -r ./run Ndb version in
backup files: Version 5.1.10 parseTableInfo  failed
Restore: Failed to load content

How to repeat:
- Install mysql 5.1 cluster. 
- Create a populate any database. 
- Perform a full backup
- Downgrade cluster to 5.0
- Try to restore

This is only supported by using mysqldump...
I'll mail tomas, to see if anything new has been decided...
