This is what we do from our backup clusters:

mysqldump -h old.host.com -u old_username -ppassword dbname |\
mysql -h new.host.com -u new_username -ppassword dbname

One line, that's it, nothing special. No need for a extra tool >.<

I haven't personally tested this theory either but perhaps you could
also add the new database to production and the old to development and
then migrate? Since they can be two entirely different hosts after all.

Thanks for the tip!  I tried but had issues with centos installing
taps.  I just did a dump and transferred the file.

I will be trying out taps on my ubuntu boxes though, it seemed to have
installed fine there.

You might want to take a look at taps for your database migration:
http://adam.heroku.com/past/2009/2/11/taps_for_easy_database_transfers/

I use it to transfer the mysql database from my production server to an
sqlite database on my development laptop. Works very reliably.

I'd just export the DB from the old server and import it into the new 
server.  Then copy the radiant install dir over to the new server.  You 
might need to make a few tweaks to some of the settings but it really 
shouldn't be any more difficult that setting up radiant the first time on 
the old server.  IE setup radiant, using the existing code base to keep 
things simple, and export/import the database.
