I did some test and server crashed.
mysql> CREATE TABLE t (id int unsigned) ENGINE=InnoDB PARTITION BY RANGE (id)
-> (PARTITION p0 VALUES LESS THAN (10) ENGINE = InnoDB,
-> PARTITION p1 VALUES LESS THAN MAXVALUE ENGINE = InnoDB);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.06 sec)
mysql> alter table t add partition (partition p2 values less than (100));
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.10 sec)

mysql> show create table t\G
ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server during query
I think we should make sure that MAXVALUE is used in last partition definition. Otherwise
it will get an error result from the function of "partition_info::check_range_constants"
if we use "unsigned int" type during executing the "alter table ... add partition ..."
operation. I give a patch and test result as following.
