 Hi, for some reason, I have an auto_increment field that's magically
 bumped up to the next biggest power of 2 after a big INSERT...SELECT
 that inserts a bunch of tuples (into an empty table). Is this expected
 behavior? I couldn't find any mention of this from the docs (using the
 MySQL 5.4.3 beta).

 Small reproducible test case:

 First, generate some data: from bash, run seq 3  /tmp/seq

 Next, run this in mysql:

 create table x (a int auto_increment primary key, b int);
 create table y (b int);
 load data infile '/tmp/seq' into table y;
 insert into x (b) select b from y;
 show create table x;

 This will show auto_increment = 32768 instead of 3.

 Is this a bug introduced in the beta? Has it been fixed in newer
 releases? Couldn't find a mention in the bug database. Thanks in
 advance.
