Description:
------------
If function is executed in a prepared statement (like CONCAT, 
UNCOMPRESS, etc), it allocates 8192-sized buffer, but fetch() 
doesn't check actual length of data. If data crosses 8192-byte 
boundary, all sorts of weird stuff starts to happen, including 
possible sensitive data disclosures of non-overwrited buffers 
(at smaller lengths) or process crashes (at bigger ones). 



Reproduce code:
---------------
$db=new mysqli("localhost","root","","test");
$qry=$db->stmt_init();
$qry->prepare("SELECT REPEAT('a',100000)");
$qry->execute();
$qry->bind_result($text);
$qry->fetch();



Expected result:
----------------
silence

Actual result:
--------------
crash!

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5.2-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.2-win32-latest.zip

I've committed semi-fix (real fix would be to fetch all the data, I guess).

Georg, any news on this?
I can't reproduce it locally, but seems to fail on gcov.php.net, see http://gcov.php.net/viewer.php?version=PHP_5_2&func=tests&file=ext%2Fmysqli%2Ftests%2Fbug38710.phpt

Should have been fixed by Stas.
