Description:
When using the new mtr with the backward compatibility flag (mtr_version=1).

The following fails to start a master/slave server:
./mysql-test-run.pl --start-and-exit rpl_alter
(note: any rpl* test can be used as the test is no actually run).
 
In this case the server fails to start. It seems that internally
a '----binlog-format=row' (note the four dashes) is added to the server 
command line instead of a --binlog-format=row.

How to repeat:
Using the new mtr, set the environment variable mtr_version=1.
run ./mysql-test-run.pl --start-and-exit rpl_alter

Suggested fix:
Fix to have the system started with a master and a slave as done by the 'old' mtr
