Description:
Since Version 4.1 mysql_init function also calls mysql_server_init. This has the negative side 
effect, that libmysqld starts always an instance of embedded server for every external connection. 
 
According to the documentation embedded server has to be started explicitly by calling 
mysql_server_init, not by calling mysql_init.
