a temporary table has grown out of heap memory reserved for it and
the remaining disk space is not big enough to store the table as
a MyISAM table.
The crash happens because the function create_myisam_from_heap
does not handle safely the mem_root structure associated
with the converted table in the case when an error has occurred.

Fixed bug #28449: a crash may happen at some rare conditions when
a temporary table has grown out of heap memory reserved for it and
the remaining disk space is not big enough to store the table as
a MyISAM table.
The crash happens because the function create_myisam_from_heap
does not handle safely the mem_root structure associated
with the converted table in the case when an error has occurred.
As it's hard to create a sitiation that would throw an error
a special code has been added that raises an error for a newly
created test called error_simulation.
mysql-test/r/error_simulation.result:
New BitKeeper file ``mysql-test/r/error_simulation.result''
Added a test case for bug #28449.
mysql-test/t/error_simulation-master.opt:
New BitKeeper file ``mysql-test/t/error_simulation-master.opt''
mysql-test/t/error_simulation.test:
New BitKeeper file ``mysql-test/t/error_simulation.test''
Added a test case for bug #28449.
