It means that anonymous user doesn't have RELOAD_priv.

You enter new 'root' password, bun new privileges take effect only
after restart mysql daemon, or after mysqladmin reload, or after
mysqladmin flush-privileges, or after FLUSH PRIVILEGES command if you
update grant tables manually.
So, you should use

    mysqladmin -uroot -hlocalhost reload

if 'root' didn't have a password before or if 'root' had a password

    mysqladmin -uroot -hlocalhost -p reload

and enter old 'root' password
