Bug#54041: MySQL 5.0.92 fails when tests from Connector/C suite run
The problem was that a user could supply supply data in chunks via the COM_STMT_SEND_LONG_DATA command to prepared statement parameter other than of type TEXT or BLOB. This posed a problem since other parameter types aren't setup to handle long data, which would lead to a crash when attempting to use the supplied data. Given that long data can be supplied at any stage of a prepared statement, coupled with the fact that the type of a parameter marker might change between consecutive executions, the solution is to validate at execution time each parameter marker for which a data stream was provided. If the parameter type is not TEXT or BLOB (that is, if the type is not able to handle a data stream), a error is returned.
