Description:
The test main.plugin fails when running it on Solaris. The error output from the test run is:

main.plugin                              [ fail ]
        Test ended at 2009-09-22 15:36:40

CURRENT_TEST: main.plugin
mysqltest: At line 7: query 'INSTALL PLUGIN example SONAME $HA_EXAMPLE_SO' failed: 1126: Can't open shared library '/home/olav/mysql/develop/repo/bugfix-6.0/storage/example/.libs/ha_example.so' (errno: 2 ld.so.1: mysqld: fatal: relocation error: file /home/olav/mysql/develop/repo/bugfix-6.0/storage/example/.libs/ha_example.so:)

The result from queries just before the failure was:
CREATE TABLE t1(a int) ENGINE=EXAMPLE;
Warnings:
Warning 1286    Unknown storage engine 'EXAMPLE'
Warning 1266    Using storage engine MyISAM for table 't1'
DROP TABLE t1;

This seems to be a regression. Running the same test using a mysql-5.1 code base does not fail.

How to repeat:
1. Check out the code from mysql-6.0-codebase-bugfixing
2. ./BUILD/autorun.sh
3. Configure for Sun Studio compiler:

./configure CC=/opt/studio12/SUNWspro/bin/cc CXX=/opt/studio12/SUNWspro/bin/CC CFLAGS="-Xa -m64 -mt -g" CXXFLAGS="-m64 -mt -g" --prefix=/home/os136802/install/mysql6 --with-client-ldflags=-static --with-plugins=myisam,innobase --enable-dtrace --with-debug

4. make
5. cd mysql-test
6. ./mysql-test-run.pl plugin

Thank you for the report.

Verified as described.

Due to have focused all activities concerning the failing plugin.test on Solaris to bug#47146, I close this bug as duplicate of 47146.
