Bug #7204 "func_str" fails on AIX 4.3 when using --ps-protocol

Description:
The "func_str" test fails on IBM AIX 4.3.3 when using the prepared statement protocol with the following diff:

TEST                            RESULT
-------------------------------------------------------
func_str                       [ fail ]

Errors are (from /home/mysqldev/aix43/test/mysql-debug-4.1.8-ibm-aix4.3.3.0-powerpc/mysql-test/var/log/mysqltest-time) :
/home/mysqldev/aix43/test/mysql-debug-4.1.8-ibm-aix4.3.3.0-powerpc/bin/mysqltest: At line 432: Result content mismatch
(the last lines may be the most important ones)
Below are the diffs between actual and expected results:

How to repeat:
Run the "func_str" test on aix 4.3 and observe the diff.

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has been committed to our

Additional info:

Fixed a couple of days ago.

Nothing to investigate here - test uses now() so it's by definition not repeatable.

You are right - we used an older source tarball on aix43 by accident. Now retesting with the correct one.
