I did all this.. in any case it's irrelevant as I've moved the
installation to Solaris 2.7 SPARC. I think the problem was related to
flaky pthreads on FreeBSD-3.3-SMP causing the MySQL installation to be
unreliable.

Talk about flaky threads.. after twenty minutes to an hour, the mysqld
process would quickly take up all of the available CPU (100%) on one
processor, but top(1) showed an idle time of 50% -- proving to all and
sundry that FreeBSD threads are not SMP aware.

Anyway.. I always thought FreeBSD was "better" than Linux. Guess I know
better now..

Any sufficiently perverted technology is indistinguishable from Perl.
