I'm going to snip right there because you've written such a
voluminous message that I'm having immense difficulties taking it all
in. But as has been pointed out, /tmp/mysql.sock is not where the
MacPorts mysql5 puts its socket. (/tmp/mysql.sock is where the
mysql.com binary distribution puts its socket file.) Why is your
mysql looking for the socket in /tmp/mysql.sock? Have you configured
your my.cnf to point to that location? If so, take those lines out
and let mysql find the socket files in the default location.
