It appears that there are two issues. 1) gethostbyname_r returning -1 in h_errno, as described above If this is fixed to copy errno to h_errno in my_gethostbyname_r(), then the following testcase failure still remains: The commands reported in the bug report -ERROR 2005 (HY000) at line 1: Unknown MySQL server host 'cyril has found a bug :)XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' (errno) +ERROR 2005 (HY000) at line 1: Unknown MySQL server host 'cyril has found a bug :)XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' (-1) Too long dbname ERROR 1102 (42000) at line 1: Incorrect database name 'test_really_long_dbnamexxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' Too long hostname -ERROR 2005 (HY000) at line 1: Unknown MySQL server host 'cyrils_superlonghostnameXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' (errno) +ERROR 2005 (HY000) at line 1: Unknown MySQL server host 'cyrils_superlonghostnameXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' (-1) 1 Thus, 2) this appears to be caused by gethostbyname_r returning 0 (success), but setting hostent *result to NULL.

The following fixes the testsuite failures for me. I have no idea whether that's really correct, as I was not find info under what circumstances gethostbyname_r returns such values. Also the *h_errno = errno copying makes the my_gethostbyname_r() interface deviate from the underlying gethostbyname_r() interface, which is also suboptimal I guess.
This appears to be a 5.1-only issue BTW.

Editing the title to show the user, not testsuite/developer impact.

Inverted error condition typo in the suggested fix :( Also renamed the return value variable for gethostbyname_r to something more reasonable.

Yes, for some reason (glibc version?) this is Ubuntu 13.04-specific. We haven't seen this on any other Linux distribution or any other Ubuntu version.

5.1 and Ubuntu 13.04 have been EOL for a long time now.
