Description:
This constructor does not set quick_group. The other Item_constructors do. This makes things confusing for classes derived from Item_sum.

Item_sum::Item_sum(List<Item> &list) :arg_count(list.elements),
  forced_const(FALSE)
{
  if ((args=(Item**) sql_alloc(sizeof(Item*)*arg_count)))
  {
    uint i=0;
    List_iterator_fast<Item> li(list);
    Item *item;

    while ((item=li++))
    {
      args[i++]= item;
    }
  }
  mark_as_sum_func();
  list.empty();                                 // Fields are used
}

How to repeat:
Review the code

Suggested fix:
Set quick_group in this constructor.

quick_group is not a member of this class in latest MySQL sources.
