Description:
running mysqld under valgrind shows many warnings about:
Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)

in the functions:
String::c_ptr() (sql_string.h:102)
Item_func_encrypt::val_str(String*) (sql_string.h:102)
strncpy (mc_replace_strmem.c:291)

See file attachment for full output.

How to repeat:
drop table if exists test;
create table `test` (`col30` smallint(6) default null,`col45` 
mediumtext character set utf8) engine=myisam default charset=latin1;
insert into `test` values (null,'contraction\'s');
insert into `test` values (-15818,'requirement\'s');
explain extended select encrypt(col30,col45) as a from test,(select encrypt(col30,col45) as b from test) a ;
select encrypt(col30,col45) as a from test,(select encrypt(col30,col45) as b from test) a ;
select encrypt(col30,col45) as a from test,(select encrypt(col30,col45) as b from test) a order by a ;
