Description:
With MySQL 6.0 bzr built with Visual Studio 9 2008 on Windows Vista, the falcon test suite hangs on Windows 2008 after the sixth test case:

falcon.falcon_bug_22089 [ pass ] 78 
falcon.falcon_bug_22125 [ pass ] 547 
falcon.falcon_bug_22143 [ pass ] 219 
falcon.falcon_bug_22144 [ pass ] 62
falcon.falcon_bug_22150-big [ skipped ] Test needs 'big-test' option
falcon.falcon_bug_22150 [ pass ] 185000 
<hangs indefinitely>

That the whole test suite hangs instead of timing out is reported elsewhere. 

This can either be caused by a hanging mysqld from the previous successful test case which couldn't be terminated, or by one from the test case that is executed after the last displayed test case that hangs.

How to repeat:
Build MySQL 6.0 with VS 9 2008 and run the test suite with ActivePerl.

On second though, this may have been fixed in 6.0-wtf already. I'll verify and re-open if not.

Closing as I've verified that this is indeed fixed in the 6.0-wtf and 6.0-falcon-team trees.
