Description:
Query being run that causes failure:
GRANT SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE ON fs.mail_addresses TO someuser@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'somepass';
Symptoms
Returns error: ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server during query
Error log shows:
090604 11:27:26 - mysqld got signal 11 ;
This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary
or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built,
or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.
We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help diagnose
the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely wrong
and this may fail.
key_buffer_size=16777216
read_buffer_size=262144
max_used_connections=6
max_connections=100
threads_connected=2
It is possible that mysqld could use up to
key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_connections = 93184 K
bytes of memory
Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.

Attempting backtrace. You can use the following information to find out
where mysqld died. If you see no messages after this, something went
terribly wrong...
Cannot determine thread, fp=0xaf092b0c, backtrace may not be correct.

Please read http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/using-stack-trace.html and follow instructions on how to resolve the stack trace. Resolved
stack trace is much more helpful in diagnosing the problem, so please do
resolve it

###
Attempted repair:
I first restored data from backups. Same results.
I then removed and reinstall packages mysql and mysql-server from Centos repository "centosplus" the symptoms are exactly the same.
Running myisamchk */*.MYI from the data directory showed mysql.user table was corrupt.
Running myisamchk -r mysql/user.MYI did repair the table correctly.
However the same symptoms persist.
All queries not relating to GRANTS appear to be working fine. SELECT, SHOW TABLES, SHOW TABLE STATUS etc all work fine.
###
How to repeat:
I cannot reproduce this on other servers running the same configuration.
