Bug #6327	CREATE TABLE showing irrelevant NDB warnings

Description:
When NDB is enabled, but the NDB cluster itself is down, CREATE TABLE statements for non-NDB storage engines produce warnings about NDB.

How to repeat:
Enable NDB support; start mysqld without starting NDB cluster.

CREATE TABLE t1 ( a int ) ENGINE=MyISAM;
SHOW WARNINGS;

ie:

mysql> show warnings;
+-------+------+-------------------------------------------+
| Level | Code | Message                                   |
+-------+------+-------------------------------------------+
| Error | 1296 | Got error 4009 'Cluster Failure' from NDB |
+-------+------+-------------------------------------------+

The server needs to check to see if the table already exists in the cluster, so I assume that is the source of the warning.  However, should the CREATE TABLE be allowed to continue if it cannot contact the cluster?

We have discussed that back and forth, and concluded
that it's ok.

For later releases (maybe 5.0), we discussed to have a database
 associated with ndb, then no tables would be allowed to be created
 in that database...(but this was only a discussion.)
