Hello, 
 
  I am running the binary mysql 4.0.13 pclinux i686 with a linux 
2.4.19 kernel.  I have the problem that every time a client
connects to the server and then exits, a defunct thread is 
left behind.  Eventually the system prevents any further threads
from being created.  

Even a simple command such as :
bin/mysql mysql -e "Select * from user"     

will add the following to the log :
030701 13:11:28      16 Connect     [EMAIL PROTECTED] on mysql
                     16 Query       Select * from user
                     16 Quit            

and the error log remains unchanged, but there is another
defunct mysqld process. The output of ps looks as follows

UID        PID  PPID  C STIME TTY          TIME CMD

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
