Fix for BUG#3422 "In 3.23 -> 4.0 replication, slave segfault when replicating LOAD DATA INFILE":
as we transform the 3.23 Load_log_event into a 4.0 Create_file_log_event which is one byte longer, we need to increment event_len. The bug was that we did not increment it, so later in code the end 0 was not seen so there was for example a segfault in strlen(fname) because fname was not 0-terminated. Other problems remain in 3.23->4.0 replication of LOAD DATA INFILE but they are less serious: Exec_master_log_pos and Relay_log_space are incorrect. I'll document them. They are not fixable without significant code changes (if you fix those problems in 4.0, you get assertion failures somewhere else etc), * which are already done in 5.0.0 *. sql/slave.cc: In 3.23->4.0 replication of LOAD DATA INFILE: as we transform the 3.23 Load_log_event into a 4.0 Create_file_log_event which is one byte longer, we need to increment event_len. So we need to modify the event_len stored in the event. And we need to decrement event_len when we compute the offset in the master's binlog.
