 I'd love that but I believe there are other ports that rely on the default
 variants being what they are now.  If I were to change p5.22-dbd-mysql and
 py27-mysql, then they would break.  I did make a change to qt5-mysql-
 plugin but AFAICT, I'm the only one declaring a dependency on this port
 and so I've changed it to suit my needs.

 To me, it points out the evils of variants and how subports are the One
 True Way.  ;)

 BTW, I did another commit, moments ago, with the active_variants checks
 turned off so I can test the build on other OS versions.
