From ha_myisam.cc:

/*
TODO: switch from protocol to push_warning here. The main reason we didn’t
it yet is parallel repair. Due to following trace:
mi_check_print_msg/push_warning/sql_alloc/my_pthread_getspecific_ptr.

Also we likely need to lock mutex here (in both cases with protocol and
push_warning).
*/
protocol->prepare_for_resend();
protocol->store(name, length, system_charset_info);
protocol->store(param->op_name, system_charset_info);
protocol->store(msg_type, system_charset_info);
protocol->store(msgbuf, msg_length, system_charset_info);
if (protocol->write())
sql_print_error(“Failed on my_net_write, writing to stderr instead: %s\n”,
msgbuf);
return;

Hopefully this will serve as a good TODO list to go and fix at some point.
