Hi!

Yes, UDF doesn't work on MYSQL 3.23 (I introduced accidently a bug
while adding a patch for UDF group functions).  This will be fixed in
MySQL 3.23.5.

Here is a patch for this for 3.23:

    }
    u_d=tmp_udf;
+   args=arguments;

    /* Fix all arguments */
    func->binary=func->maybe_null=0;
