>Description:
I've installed MySQL v4.0.8 chrooted like described in detail
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?threa did=34338

Operating System is RedHat Linux v8.0 including ALL current available
patches!

As example I used the my-medium.cnf example configuration file ... and
changed the path variables concluding to the variables ... the mysql root user
did not have a passwort currently. The error occured right after I ran FLUSH
PRIVILEGES (from the console) ... Kernel is v2.4.20 with the grsecurity patchset.
>How-To-Repeat:
mysql -p
use mysql;
useradd ...
flush privileges;
(then the crash occurs right after flush privileges)
