Process crashes when setting lc_messages (via ADODB)

Create an Excel Spreadsheet and add a VBA Macro:

Sub TestConnection()

    Dim adoConn As New ADODB.Connection

    Dim cmd As New ADODB.Command

    adoConn.Open "Driver=MariaDB ODBC 3.2 Driver;server=192.168.1.1;database=test;user=test;password=test"

    Set cmd.ActiveConnection = adoConn

    cmd.CommandText = "SET SESSION lc_messages = 'en_US'"

    cmd.Execute

    Debug.Print "done."

End Sub

Add a reference to the Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 6.1 Library.

As soon as you start the macro, the macro runs to the end (the done appears in the debug window) but the process crashes. The ODBC SQL.LOG shows all commands to be executed successfully.

Same if you run the macro in an MS Access database. Same in MS Word.

This works perfectly in all 3.1.x versions of the ODBC driver.
