Description:
When you enable the innodb_table_monitor and there are many tables, the output to log file can take a few minutes.

During these minute, if you run 'mysqladmin shutdown', innodb can crash:

070504 22:22:40InnoDB: Assertion failure in thread 7276 in file .\buf\buf0buf.c line 2431
InnoDB: We intentionally generate a memory trap.
InnoDB: Submit a detailed bug report to http://bugs.mysql.com.
InnoDB: If you get repeated assertion failures or crashes, even
InnoDB: immediately after the mysqld startup, there may be
InnoDB: corruption in the InnoDB tablespace. Please refer to
InnoDB: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/forcing-recovery.html
InnoDB: about forcing recovery.

How to repeat:
create alot of tables, with indexes and some data.

create table innodb_table_monitor(id int)engine=innodb;

wait for the outputs to start, then run 'mysqladmin shutdown'

Suggested fix:
don't crash
