I think libmysqlclient tries to open a file-based socket for loclhost;
I don't know if it'll try to crate a real socket if that fails. Make
sure you are able to connect over socket using the command-line
client. If not, Kate (aka John P. Looney) , has a patch that allows
you to connect to a midgard database using it's FQDN, whih is
guaranteed to use a socket. I wrote the patch that allows one part of
the deal (not the cycling code Kate, but the 'hostname:database' patch
I sent you separately) which is what you need. Kate, if you still have
it, could you post it somewhere? I seem to have, uh, misplaced it.
I haven't tested the patch myself since I couldn't manage to make
mysql itself to accept socket connections.

Not to my knowledge.
