Hi.

That's the documented behaviour:
http://www.mysql.com/doc/C/o/Connection_access.html

For "jwgas@localhost" the entry "@localhost" has a higher precedence
than "jwgas@%" because it is considered more specific. You may want
consider removing the "@localhost" entry completely, depending on your
needs.

Bye,

        Benjamin.
