Description:
Hard to explain and repeat. The 4.1 source tree contains a test rpl_relayrotate which has the relevant synchronization options to trigger the crash.
The symptom is that the slave says its relay log has a "bad magic number".

How to repeat:
hard

Suggested fix:
This is already fixed in 4.1, I am going to port back from the fix from 4.1 into 4.0
