Euh you mean fed to the command line of mysqld_safe? True, that. Did you have a look at mysqld_multi also? By the way I did find where to tweak it in the my_print_default code (mysys library actually so it'll be in all tools), just turns out I need a new pointer variable to deal with things in the right spot. I was trying to do without but all existing vars are in use at that point.

Status in OurDelta - Builds for MySQL: Confirmed Bug description: mysqld accepts both dashes and underscores in server options, however mysqld_safe does not. Since it's unclear from the user's perspective (and they shouldn't NEED to know!) which options get processed only by mysqld_safe, this can mean that they use an option in the wrong way but don't notice it. Example... open_files_limit When written like that, it mysqld_safe will not recognise it and thus not call ulimit -n ... The option WILL be feed to mysqld so it shows the "correct" number in SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES. Except, since ulimit wasn't called, it's not actually in effect!
