Description:
Behaviour has changed. \u now requires a space before database name.

How to repeat:
C:\tmp\t>mysql -uroot
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 23 to server version: 4.1.3-beta-nt-log

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

mysql> show databases;
+----------+
| Database |

| bob      |
| mysql    |

2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Suggested fix:

4.0.x - works
