Problem with the GRANT statement on 5.22

Hi,
I am running 5.22 on Linux and I ran into a weird issue.
Basicly anytime I run this command:
GRANT INSERT ON table `test`.`junk_table` TO 'root'@'%'

It creates a new root@% user account with no password and this then causes problems
with other commands going forward. I then have to manually delete the bogus entry.

Is this a known bug? Or am I just doing something wrong with the grant statement?

I thought grant was only supposed to create a new account if you use the IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD option?

Thanks,
