FWIW, we have at least one case where the server gets itself into a loop for no obvious reason. See http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=414 and http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=12061 for more details. If the problem at hand is related to this bug, I'd be very interested in hearing from you, especially if you can reproduce the problem easily. Note that the submitter of the second-mentioned bug report has done a very good job of describing his problem. Only reports of similar quality would be of much help. If this isn't your (Joeffrey's) problem, it might give you an idea of the kind of information we're looking for.
