There will not be ;) Sorry I've sent a note to Darryl and not to the list.
I've lost the ref. I don't have even the error message now so it will be
very hard to find it again. The bug is that there get tables created
which cannot be dropped because of some temporary files incorrectly
created. It is not a problem for now, but could appear in the future
breaking any consequent tests. And this is why I think we need a newer
version."

I got too many different db installations to count on my box so i got
it covered ;)
So which version do you guys prefer and is the fail rate for the mysql
tests normal?
