Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 I couldn't tell from your message: which did you run without sudo --
 mysqld_safe or mysql_install_db? As far as I know, you should run both
 commands with sudo -- the former should run as root while the latter
 should run as the mysql user -- so I'm not surprised you're running into
 trouble if you don't do this.

 Your patch just changes a "mkdir" into a "mkdir -p", which would create
 intermediate directories. I do not see how this would relate to your
 permissions issues. However, this may be a useful patch generally, which
 you should feel free to file in the [http://bugs.mysql.com/ MySQL issue
 tracker].
