I'm glad it's not just me. I have 2 v3.22.32 servers running under
HP-UX 10.20
Both servers are being used by FCGI processes on the web with persistant
connections to the database servers.

One MySQL server heeds the 'wait_timeout' value, the other ignores it
and keeps threads running for 'ever'.

Any ideas please ?
