Ok, so this seems to be MariaDB 5.5-specific. I just tried the tests
with the latest MySQL (5.5.29), that is, using both MySQL 5.5.29 (as
packaged by Debian) and libmysqlclient headers/libraries (as provided
by Oracle). Everything works fine.

So I tend to think this is either a MariaDB bug or a setup issue.
Regarding the possible setup issue, one thing that might be worth
checking is that you are using libmysqlclient from 5.5 as opposed
to 5.1. Though for me everything works fine with both 5.5 and 5.1
clients.
