Description:
mysql> HELP SHOW;
Name: 'SHOW'
Description:
SHOW has many forms that provide information about databases, tables,
columns, or status information about the server. This section describes
those following:

[...]
SHOW [FULL] EVENTS
[...]

mysql> HELP SHOW EVENTS;
Name: 'SHOW EVENTS'
Description:
Syntax:
SHOW EVENTS [{FROM | IN} schema_name]
    [LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
[...]

--------

Notice '[FULL]' in 'HELP SHOW', which is not there in 'HELP SHOW EVENTS', nor in the manual:

'SHOW FULL EVENTS was removed in MySQL 5.1.12.'
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/show-events.html

How to repeat:
HELP SHOW;

Suggested fix:
Remove '[FULL] ' from HELP SHOW help text.

In the "HELP SHOW" output of 5.1.50-enterprise-gpl-advanced "SHOW SCHEDULER STATUS" is listed, but it is not working.
