Hmmm... OK, have done that (and many thanks!), but now am back to the problem I had in the first place, i.e. that it doesn't create the /sw/var/mysql/test and /sw/var/mysql/mysql databases.Aha! Sorted out one problem - now for the next one. Basically, the problem was that there was an /etc/my.cnf file lying around from one of my previous installation, and that defined MySQL's data directory as being /var/database/mysql. It would appear this caused the installation process to put the databases there instead of /sw/var/mysql...
BUT...
Although MySQL installs properly, attempting to run safe_mysqld gives some more permissions errors:
