Yep, both trivial fixes. I'll push a branch up with those shortly.

My question still remains though of 'why', knowing 'mysql' works fine
for talking to mysqld. :)

Also, Tom, there is a new command line client in the works. It's
still in prototype stage, but it is at: https://launchpad.net/boots

The 'drizzle' client is there until we have this new client stable.
