This one's odd.  One the rs6000 it runs fine.  On the powerbook the
permissions were apparently wrong on the mysql data files. Doing:

chown mysql /var/lib/mysql/mysql/*

Allows it to run now.

The were owned by root, rather than mysql.

Perhaps some sequence of updates that didn't happen quite as expected?

uid for mysql on the bad system is:

[root@powerbook root]# grep mysql /etc/passwd
mysql:x:75:75:system user for MySQL:/var/lib/lib/mysql:/bin/bash

On the good system:

[root@rs6000 root]# grep mysql /etc/passwd
mysql:x:415:415:MySQL server:/var/lib/mysql:/bin/bash

Comment is also different.

Looked at this in more detail.  It's a no-arch package, so my build isn't
even what's getting disributed.  the file is in the tarball but never gets
installed.  I'll mail the maintainer and see if he's aware of the issue.

Patched this, also got rid of the non-functional "interfaces" icon.
