Comment:

 The `mysql.server` script should work correctly. The `$bindir` referenced
 in the script is `/opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin`; if you look into that
 directory, you will find the binaries without the "5" suffix.

 However, you are not supposed to use the `mysql.server` script directly.
 Instead, you're expected to use "`sudo port load mysql5`" and "`sudo port
 unload mysql5`" to start and stop the server, respectively.

 If you believe the `mysql.server` script truly is broken, then please
 reopen this ticket and paste in the error message you receive.
