The theory is that mysql5 +server will not only install the mysql5 client libs, but also the server. But due to a bug in the 5.0.x series, --without-server is ignored and the mysql5 server is always built. So at the moment the only difference is the launchd startupitem. There are plans to split off a separate mysql5-server from the port. See #14146 [1] and #12313 [2] for more details.
