It's in the pkg-list.  The first line is "@stopdaemon mysql-server", so
any time you upgrade the port, it kills mysql.  Enough ports do this,
and it's so annoying, that I recommend just disabling it completely:

Some ports run the rc.d script themselves on uninstall (sysutils/hal,
for exmaple), so you have to edit the pkg-plist file and remove the
unexec line from those manually.
