Description:
When I try f.e. query something like this

SHOW COLUMNS IN mysql.user;

MySQL Server hangs up...

I have installed MySQL 4.0 on the same machine (port 3306 - I use port 3307 for MySQL 5.0).

How to repeat:
1. Run mysql command line client or MySQL Query Browser.
2. Select any database.
3. And then try to list columns in table using 'SHOW COLUMNS IN...' or 'DESCRIBE...'
