Replication fails on the mysql.tables_priv table

Hi,

We have configured a master-master configuration using MySQL 5.5.27 and are experiencing a problem when assigning table privileges to users.

This is wat goes wrong:
Master-master configuration has 2 nodes, mysql1.example.com and mysql2.example.com

MySQL administrator has a wildcard in hostname:
On mysql1.example.com
mysql -u root -p
CREATE USER 'adminuser'@'admin%.example.com' IDENTIFIED BY '******';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'adminuser'@'admin%.example.com' WITH GRANT OPTION;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

MySQL administrator creates a user from host admin1.example.com:
mysql -h mysql1.example.com -u testuser -p
CREATE USER 'testuser'@'localhost';
GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO 'testuser'@'localhost';
GRANT SELECT ON `test`.`test` TO 'testuser'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

This adds a row to the mysql.tables_priv table
SELECT * FROM `mysql`.`tables_priv`\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
Host: localhost
Db: test
User: testuser
Table_name: test
Grantor: adminuser@admin%.example.com
Timestamp: 2013-01-11 03:29:39
Table_priv: Select
Column_priv:

MySQL replication replicates the user to the other node, when looking up the changes on this other node this is what I get:
mysql -h mysql2.example.com -u testuser -p
SELECT * FROM `mysql`.`tables_priv`\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
Host: localhost
Db: test
User: testuser
Table_name: test
Grantor: adminuser@admin1.example.com
Timestamp: 2013-01-11 03:29:39
Table_priv: Select
Column_priv:

As you can see the grantors hostname is changed, the wildcard is replaced!

Is this a bug in MySQL replication, are we doing something wrong?
