Description:
The code in logger.cc is designed to return an error if backup operation is interrupted. See @line 254# in logger.cc.

If you use debug insertion (see below), the server will crash. The problem appears in kernel.cc @ line#1164. Note that this is after the error has been handled by the debug insertion test (see below) and appears to be during closing of the stream object.

Note: May be related to BUG#46588.

How to repeat:
You can reproduce the problem using this patch:

And this test:

--echo #
--echo # Create database and data to test.
--echo #
CREATE DATABASE backup_test;
CREATE TABLE backup_test.t1 (a char(30)) ENGINE=MEMORY;
INSERT INTO backup_test.t1 VALUES ("01 Test Basic database example");

INSERT INTO backup_test.t1 VALUES ("04 Test Basic database example"); 
INSERT INTO backup_test.t1 VALUES ("05 Test Basic database example"); 
INSERT INTO backup_test.t1 VALUES ("06 Test Basic database example"); 
INSERT INTO backup_test.t1 VALUES ("07 Test Basic database example"); 

CREATE TABLE backup_test.t2 (a char(30)) ENGINE=MYISAM;
INSERT INTO backup_test.t2 VALUES ("11 Test Basic database example"); 
INSERT INTO backup_test.t2 VALUES ("12 Test Basic database example"); 
INSERT INTO backup_test.t2 VALUES ("13 Test Basic database example"); 

--echo #
--echo # Now create more database objects for test.
--echo #
CREATE PROCEDURE backup_test.p1(p1 CHAR(20))
  INSERT INTO backup_test.t1 VALUES ("50");

CREATE TRIGGER backup_test.trg AFTER INSERT ON backup_test.t1 FOR EACH ROW
 INSERT INTO backup_test.t1 VALUES('Test objects count');

CREATE FUNCTION backup_test.f1() RETURNS INT RETURN (SELECT 1);

CREATE VIEW backup_test.v1 as SELECT * FROM backup_test.t1;

CREATE EVENT backup_test.e1 ON SCHEDULE EVERY 1 YEAR DO
  DELETE FROM backup_test.t1 WHERE a = "not there";

--echo #
--echo # Now we need some privileges
--echo #
GRANT ALL ON backup_test.* TO 'joe'@'user';

--replace_column 1 #
BACKUP DATABASE backup_test TO 'orig.bak';

SET SESSION debug="+d,ER_BACKUP_INTERRUPTED";
--replace_column 1 #
--error ER_BACKUP_INTERRUPTED
BACKUP DATABASE backup_test TO '1.bak';

Suggested fix:
Unknown.

Once fixed, the test case can be enabled in backup_errors_debug_2.test using the following:

# Test for error ER_BACKUP_INTERRUPTED.
LET $caseno = 37;
LET $errno = $ER_BACKUP_INTERRUPTED;
LET $errname = ER_BACKUP_INTERRUPTED;
LET $operation = BACKUP;
--source suite/backup/include/test_for_error.inc

The problem cannot be repeated using the latest mysql-6.0-backup tree.
