Description:
If I run mysql_install_db without an /etc/my.cnf file, instead of reporting an error,
i get a "mysqld got signal 11;" message.

How to repeat:
Run mysql_install_db without a /etc/my.cnf

just tried latest 5.0-ndb build on Debian PPC - same thing happens.

I wasn't able to repeat with latest BK source on Slackware 10.0

I can't repeat with latest bk either. I think somebody fixed it (which is good).
