Description:
When running the falcon suite using a recent version of the falcon-team tree I get the following error:

falcon.falcon_bug_33211        [ fail ]

mysqltest: At line 7: query 'CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE t1(a INT) ENGINE=falcon TABLESPACE nosuchspace' failed: 1005: Can't create table 'test.t1' (errno: 156)

The result from queries just before the failure was:
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE t1(a INT) ENGINE=falcon TABLESPACE nosuchspace;

More results from queries before failure can be found in /home/os136802/mysql/develop/repo/falcon-bug40633/mysql-test/var/log/falcon_bug_33211.log

Warnings from just before the error:
Warning 1478 TABLESPACE option is not supported for temporary tables. Switching to 'FALCON_TEMPORARY' tablespace.

Aborting: falcon.falcon_bug_33211 failed in default mode.

=====================================================================

Note: this seems to happen only when I run the complete test suite. If I run
just this single test it succeed.

How to repeat:
Run the falcon test suite on Solaris (it seems not to happen on Linux).

Suggested fix:
Test should pass.

      Bug #42414 falcon_bug_33211 fails when trying to create a table in a non-existing table space.
      
      This is a regression introduced with the fix for #42392  !Falcon bugs in recovery of create tablespace". The root cause is that tablespace bootstrap does not try open all tablespaces anymore. The code in Falcon was not prepared to handle inactive tablespace in this specific case 
      (create table in a tablespace)
      
      Fix:  open tablespace if it is inactive, regardless if it is an open open by id or by name.
