I've never seen this up to now...
is it a new installation from scratch without any plugins which are not part of the core?

Best answer

Perhaps this is due to a bug in a specific version of MySQL.

In qa-db-selects.php, please try changing this phrase:

parentid<=>parentkey

... to ...

^categories.parentid<=>parentkey
