Here is the patch to make_binary_distribution.sh for OpenServer 5.0.7 if you want it only for OpenServer then some thing like the patch for mysql_test_db is needed.

I just verified that this is still a problem with the lastest bk(date March 25 2004 at 1800 MST) from 4.0 and 4.1.

Thank you Boyd for to point up us.

Thanks for pointing this out and sorry for the delay - this is now
fixed in the 4.0 tree and will be resolved for 4.0.20 and beyond.
