I can 100% assure you that if MacPorts extracts the downloaded file (and then 
patches, configures, builds, destroots, and installs it), it is not corrupt. 
MacPorts includes checksums on all distfiles and will not proceed if the file 
you downloaded is not exactly byte-for-byte the same file that I (in the case 
of the mysql ports) verified works correctly.

mysqld is a compiled program, and how it is compiled depends on your operating 
system version and processor architecture. So getting one from someone else 
won't necessarily get you something that works on your system.
