Description:
falcon_bug_34351_B fails; sometimes. On a single core machine is fails more often than on a 64-bit machine.

How to repeat:
Run falcon_bug_34351_B several times.

Linux 64-bit dual-core:
./mysql-test-run.pl --force --mem --skip-ndb --suite=falcon  falcon_bug_34351_B falcon_bug_34351_B falcon_bug_34351_B ...

TEST                           RESULT         TIME (ms)

Thank you for the bug report. Verified on Suse 11.1 64-bit:

falcon.falcon_bug_34351_B      [ fail ]

mysqltest: At line 60: query 'reap' succeeded - should have failed with errno 1020...

The result from queries just before the failure was:

Assigning to Olav since he just debugged 
#41357 falcon.falcon_bug_34351_C fails with assertion IS_CONSISTENT_READ

This test case is failing sporadically only because the timing between the two connections in MTR is not controlled very well.  If I add an extra select and --real_sleep 1, it works consistently.
