        This solution works, of course, but has one unwanted pre-requisite. I
have to be the root MySQL user (or a user that has privileges to modify
that table) to modify table_priv.
        The code that I am working on will be running on a Apache server and I
do not want to have the web server login to MySQL using a user with that
high privileges. It is a security issue!! :)
        I guess, I will have to work arround this!!

        Thanx
