Comment (by ken.cunningham.webuse@…):

 I found out how to run the mysql test suite on macports - you
 {{{
 sudo port build
 }}}
 the port, but stop there and go into the build directory. Then all is in
 the right place to run the tests.

 Unfortunately, mysql56 on PPC built with the parameters above does not
 fully pass the test suite -- it aborts at 10 failed tests, with this as
 the end of the output.
 {{{

 Too many failed: Failed 10/110 tests, 90.91% were successful.

 Failing test(s): main.plugin_auth_qa_2 main.mysql_client_test
 main.plugin_auth_qa main.sp main.ipv4_as_ipv6
 main.plugin_auth_sha256_server_default_tls main.events_bugs
 binlog.binlog_variables_log_bin_index binlog.binlog_variables_log_bin
 main.func_encrypt

 The log files in var/log may give you some hint of what went wrong.
 }}}

 So, although 90% of the tests pass, it's not fully functional. Looks like
 many errors are in the encryption area -- don't have any idea why that
 would be...

 So mysql56 might be OK for some purposes, but you'd have to check your
 specific uses.

 Now I'm intrigued -- I'd like to see how mysql55 performs with the test
 suite on PPC (and for fun, how mysql56 performs on 10.6/Intel -- might be
 interesting).
