Bug #35399	test invalid_hostname" 2>&1" succeeded - should have failed with errno 1...

Description:
It would appear to me that this test should have passed but it's returning the "wrong" exit status. It's happily producing "unknown" errors.

It also seems odd to me that MySQL would build and pass all of its tests and then "fail" on one test where it does seem to think there's something wrong.

Bug? User misunderstanding?

How to repeat:
make
make test
wait

typo fixed

Thank you for the report.

Please indicate accurate version of MySQL server you use. Also please paste output of `make test` which you consider wrong.

accurate version of server?  I don't know what you mean.

this was built from source: mysql-5.0.51a.tar.gz

The output of make test that I consider wroong is the summary of this report

here'es the whole thing

mysqltest: At line 210: command "$MYSQL test -e "\r test invalid_hostname" 2>&1" succeeded - should have failed with errno 1...

The result from queries just before the failure was:
