Description:
A default value for BIT field should be displayed using a bit-field value
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/bit-field-values.html) instead of a non-printable value.

How to repeat:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `bit` (
`bit-2` bit(2) NOT NULL default b'1'
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 COLLATE=latin1_general_ci;

SHOW CREATE TABLE `bit`;
