Description:
When querying ndb$info tables from OS shell with 

mysqld -e "select * from ndb$info.ndb$table"

it fails with syntax error no matter how I quote database and table name. Works with 

mysqld -e "select * from ndb$table" 'ndb$info' though.

How to repeat:
See above

correct syntax (in bash) is: bash> mysqld -e 'select * from ndb$info.ndb$table'
and, we already concluded that we should have views wo/ the use of '$'
closing as not a bug
