I have always known fink to have this available but wanted to avoid it. I
suppose I could just revert to using the init script but from what I have
read it seems that the launchd is the better option. Yes, I saw the segfault
but after looking into it, it seemed that it must be something I am missing.
It would appear that for some reason those run time variables are not
getting set. I built MySQL 5.045 from source and it will run fine, just not
from launchd. Simply launching mysqld_safe works fine. Using the
"mysql.server start" works too.

So, other than using Fink, is there anything else that might seem obvious? I
am willing to ride this one out and see what other options there are to try.

Thanks

Steffan
