Package: mysql-server-4.1
Version: 4.1.13a-3
Severity: normal

Table mysql.db contains column User of type char(5). It should be type
char(16) as is in table mysql.user. I don't know where this mistake was
introduced.

Longer usernames such as 'wikiuser' are accepted when setting
database-specific privileges, but not handled properly. Only part of
username is stored to the mysql.db table.
