First - please, ALWAYS cc: [email protected], or better if you feel
you found a bug, use http://bugs.mysql.com to report it.

Then - unfortunately, I failed to repeat the bug.
I created a table with `#'i` field. mysqldump dumped it correctly,
then I loaded it back - no error, dumped again - and I got absolutely
the same dump, so the table was restored ok.

4.0.10 is too old version, try the latest 4.0.18

Regards,
Sergei
