hello, when i run "./mysql-test-run.pl --suite=engines/funcs,engines/iuds --force --mysqld=--partition --nowarnings --max-test-fail=0", i see lots of test failures on mariadb-5.5.25 (and other distributions). either (1) i am not running the tests correctly, or (2) the test and/or test result files are broken, or (3) there are real problems being detected. i suspect most of the failures are caused by (2) above. anyway, here are the failures: Completed: Failed 37/323 tests, 88.54% were successful.
