Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 Ok, so no log file got written at all.

 Are the permissions of /opt/local/var/log/mysql5 such that mysql5 can
 write into it? The directory should be owned by mysql:mysql, or on Leopard
 or later possibly _mysql:_mysql. What about the permissions of
 /opt/local/var and /opt/local/var/log? They should be 755.

 What happens if you start safe_mysqld manually from the command line, as
 root or with sudo? Do you get an error message? Or does the server then
 start?
