I haven't examined the code of the client in detail, but it appears to disconnect where it should. The fact that I get a [mysqld defunct] proces even if I execute a query with the 'mysql' utility, I consider an implication of the server or the system.
Am I correct in understanding that the binary distribution is a complete static binary that depends on no libraries installed on my system? And are there any tools I can use to find out what signals the mysqld processes are sending and receiving ?
