Comment(by d@…):

 The problem with a lack of things like "mysql_config"  is that other
 utilities and build scripts that depend on there being a central mysql
 installation, often fail. There should definitely be a way to set ONE
 mysql installation as the default, just like you can select a default
 python version. If there already is such a thing, I have not found it, and
 for this I apologize. Even if the macports scripts all work, other
 installations often fail and cause serious pains. The only solution I've
 found is to put  /opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin into the $PATH, which is not a
 solution IMHO.
