Description:
Having trouble finding information on the new 'BIT' type in 5.0.3...It's listed here in the overview of numeric types, but not in the list of numeric types:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/numeric-type-overview.html

but not here, where all numeric types are listed in a table:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/numeric-types.html

How to repeat:
Look at the docs.

I've added information about the BIT type to the
second page. (But not to the table, which lists only
the integer types.)
