mysql55 no longer ships with startup script for MacPorts

[Brad Allison]

port install mysql55 +server installs just the server (but without the

port install mysql55-server installs just the server.

So I don't see why there are both?

Neither one installed the client for me and there's no mysql55-client
package. :(
