Description:
I installed 4.0.21-win on my WinXP and instead of the two @%-accounts I did get two @build-accounts.
I dont have a clue if these will work as %, so they can be accessed from the outside, and if they will I guess I'll have to replace the %'s in my code with build's :(

The strange thing is that I uninstalled and installed 4.0.20-win and still the same, even though I'm 100% sure that when I tried that earlier version earlier (before last reformat of harddrive) it gave me the @%-accounts as it should.

Strange the manual says NOTHING about this.

How to repeat:
Just come over to me and install it on my pc, its the same every time and with both 4.0.20 and 4.0.21 ;)

Thank for the bug report. The "builds" account were created during the
build process.

Just you need to delete these account, to set thr root account how 
explained in the Reference Manual and to add new accounts according
with your need.

I installed 4.0.23, and found that root user's hosts had been changed to 'localhost' and 'production.mysql.com'. Isn't should be 'localhost' and '%'???

Thanks,
Ben
