INFORMIX SERVER / 5725A3900 / C10 - IDS 12.10

If you run a query which has a subquery in its WHERE clause, the 
optimization of such query can lead to a crash in the sqoptim() 
function. On 12.10.FC4 this leads to a complete crash of the 
instance, on 12.10.FC4W1 the AF and shmem files are generated, 
the client application receives the error -874, but the instance 
stays online. 
Stack trace of the failing thread is the same on both versions:

* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         * 
* A query involving subqueries may result in assertion failure * 
* and -874 error under the following conditions:               * 
*   - there are more than 1 main query tables                  * 
*   - there are more than 1 subquery tables                    * 
*   - subquery is flattened                                    * 
*   - one of the subuqery tables has a unique index on the     * 
* join column between subquery table and a main query table    * 
*   - the other subquery does not have such a unique index     * 
**************************************************************** 
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              * 
* Update to IBM Informix Server 12.10.xC5.                     * 
****************************************************************

The problem doesn't reproduce if the subquery flattening is 
turned off.  Set the NO_SUBQF environment variable to 1 in the 
client environment.
