I don't think that's logged anywhere.

Dump the 'mysql' database on the master, and load it on the slave.

If the slave has a different set of user accounts, I think you'll have  
to manually create what you want on the slave.  In that case,  
configure the master to not replicate the 'mysql' database so your  
changes on the master won't affect the slave.

Hm.  Are users on the slave modifying tables which get replicated from  
the master?  That's grandma's recipe for data stew.  You can't do that  
if you have any interest in data integrity.  If the slave has some  
tables which only exist on the slave, that's probably not a huge  
issue.  If you want to describe the situation in a little more detail  
we can help comment further on how bad/not-bad it all is. :)
