New description:

 Both share some files and (correct me if I'm wrong) both use
 $prefix/var/db/mysql

 The official binairies used to install as $prefix/mysql-$version/

 Since some other ports depend on shared libs, then it could be
 $prefix/mysql$major to survive between
 upgrades with $prefix/var/db/mysql$major ?

 thanks
