Description:
MySQLD crashes when it runs out of temp space.

We have a MySQLD configured to write it's temp data on a 512Mb /tmp partition.
When running large queries MySQL often crashes when /tmp is full.

MySQL should report an error , not crash.

How to repeat:
Create small /tmp space.
Run large queries
Crash

Suggested fix:
Throw error,  don't crash.

Thank you for a problem report. Please, check with a newer version, 5.1.14, and in case of the same crashes send your my.cnf file content and the corresponding part of the error log.
