Hi,
An IRC user reported some strange behavior with the MD5 function under the version 3.3.2 shipped with Ubuntu[1].
For instance, select md5('blah') is returning 3666316564303032616235353935383539303134656266303935313532326439 instead of 6f1ed002ab5595859014ebf0951522d9. I also tested a few other strings, which aren't worth copying and pasting here other than to say they are also incorrect.
I did some work with git and found it affects the officially distributed versions 3.3.0, 3.3.1, and 3.3.2 (and was then fixed for 3.3.3).
Since it's been fixed for several releases, I don't think anything needs to be done about it, but I haven't seen any bug reports or commit messages about it and thought it should be mentioned.
To reproduce under any of 3.3.0, 3.3.1, or 3.3.2 go to the SQL query window, run the query "select md5('blah')" and compare the result to the same query run from the command line (or a non-affected pma instance).
