Scott,

Please don't change it.

I wish mysql, pgsql, php were setup in individual directories like  
apache2.

That was one of the niceties of installing them individually in /usr/ 
local

/usr/local/apache
/usr/local/mysql
/usr/local/pgsql
/usr/local/php

It may not work as well with shared resources, etc. but there is  
something really nice about going to one folder and finding everything  
you need for one application. symlinks can address any difficulties.

Thanks for the efforts...
