Description:
If master is 3.23 and slave is 4.0, the value in Exec_master_log_pos in SHOW SLAVE STATUS
is too big by 6 bytes.

How to repeat:
set up 3.23->4.0 replication and do SHOW SLAVE STATUS.

Suggested fix:
This is because the 4.0 slave converts 3.23 events it reads into the 4.0 format which has
6 more bytes.
