I know I'm not really answering your question, but I've had no problems with CFMX 7.0.1/MySQL 5. I followed the directions in the comments to Ben Forta's post on the MySQL 5 release, and all worked fine (I have done this on 3 different machines): http://www.forta.com/blog/index.cfm?mode=entry&entry=A61BD155-3048-80A9- EF63F5397C4511AA
