You're comparing apples to oranges here. You need to run the same query
on both servers and compare the results. password() and old_password()
work differently, so the results you posted are expected.
Run select password("bananas"); on both systems and compare that output.
Using old_password() is only helpful/necessary if you've upgraded from
mysql < 4.1 to something > 4.1.
