Description:
./mysql-test-run.pl with ---ddd set "single use" breakpoint mysql_parse() run mysqld when ./mysql-test-run do not run mysql and do not set breakpoints.

I always waswonder why --gdb run mysqld, because it frequently too late to set breakpoint on mysql_parse()

How to repeat:
cd mysql-test
./mysql-test-run.pl --ddd alias

Suggested fix:
repeat shell version behaviour

Sanja, what do you expect it to do when using --ddd?

Exactly the same what shell do:
load mysql and stop (do not run)
but have everything ready for run (issuing just run starts mysql with all needed parameters)

Looking at the code in the shell version it shure looks like the intention is to set breakpoints and run mysqld also when using ddd. But I can agree that why not let the user set breakpoints and press run. That is not the hard part of starting mysqld in the debugger.
