Do you just want it to work on bootup?

Fink currently is using another method, via /Library/StartupItems,  that 
predates launchd:

You can start the MySQL server manually using
 'mysqld_safe --user=mysql &'
 or you can run 'daemonic enable mysql' to create a StartupItem for it.
 All of these must be done as root.
 
Running the latter command will start mysql on boot for you.
