Happens in all three runs ("default", "--ps-protocol", "--embedded-server") for the "max" builds on all HP-PA machines:
- hp3750 (HP-UX 11.00, HP-PA, 32 bit),
- hp3750-64bit (HP-UX 11.00, HP-PA, 64 bit),
- hpux11 (HP-UX 11.11, HP-PA, 32 bit),
- hpux11-64bit (HP-UX 11.11, HP-PA, 64 bit)

How to repeat:
Run the suite.

The test "bdb" is _skipped_ for all builds but "max", so its restriction to "max" builds seems not to signify a connection to NDB.
These builds use the HP compiler.

"max" tree of 5.0.9 is saved on "hpux11" in directory "~/bug10802".
