Description:
When the mysql_upgrade script runs, it performs a number of ALTER table statements.  If the mysql_upgrade has already been run on the slave, then it can result in duplicate column errors.

Many people do any upgrades etc to slaves first, so this is kind of annoying.  It's also unknown how many events need to be skipped with SQL_SLAVE_SKIP_COUNTER.

How to repeat:
Use mysql upgrade on slave, then use it on master.

Suggested fix:
Add a --local option to mysql_upgrade to disable binary logging for the session it executes in.
