Description:
The CHARACTER SET clause works incorrectly for a function return data type (in stored 
procedures implementation). 
 

How to repeat:
mysql> create function fu13 () returns char(10) character set latin2 return 'a'; 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) 
 
mysql> select fu13(); 
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax.  Check the manual that 
corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'ret                            
urn 'a'' at line 2 
 
mysql> select fu13(); 
Packets out of order (Found: 2, expected 1) 
ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server during query
