drop table if exists t2;
drop table if exists t3;
create table t1(c1 varchar(100)) engine=innodb;
create table t2(c7 int)engine=innodb;
create table t3(c3 int,c7 int,c4 varchar(200))engine=innodb;
explain extended select * from (select t3.c4,(select c1 from t1 limit 1) as d,count(*) as
c from t2,t3 group by t3.c4, d)  as res;

  Fixed bug #28728: a crash when executing EXPLAIN EXTENDED for a query
  using a derived table over a grouping subselect.
  
  This crash happens only when materialization of the derived tables 
  requires creation of auxiliary temporary table, for example when
  a grouping operation is carried out with usage of a temporary table.
  
  The crash happened because EXPLAIN EXTENDED when printing the query
  expression made an attempt to use the objects created in the mem_root
  of the temporary table which has been already freed by the moment
  when printing is called.
  
  This bug appeared after the method Item_field::print() had been 
  introduced.
