mysql> /R /p still crashes mysql on Windows

The \p prompt string sequence produces the socket name in the prompt
on Unix, and the named pipe name on Windows.

Or at least it's supposed to. On Windows, \p actually results in
an exception and program crash.

How-To-Repeat:

Invoke mysql, then issue either of these commands:

prompt \p
\R \p

I reported this initially in the days of, oh, 4.0.2 or so. Still
occurs in 4.0.9.
