I tried it, and mysqladmin just sits there and never returns the prompt.
Looking at it from another ssh session, I see that mysqladmin and
safe_mysqld and mysql are all still active. Perhaps admin is killing and
safe is restarting just as fast. Mysqladmin did not respond to Control-C,
nor did it listen to a kill. Only kill -9 released it. Mysql is still
running.
