yes, this works well. borrowing from the notes in the drupal package;

In order to run with standard OpenBSD chroot'ed httpd:
- make sure you can connect to your database.
Create a directory for the mysql socket.
mkdir -p /var/www/var/run/mysql
Adjust /etc/my.cnf to put the mysql socket into the chroot.
[client]
socket = /var/www/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock
[mysqld]
socket = /var/www/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock
-- -- --
if you have an application outside the chroot where you can't set
the socket path, you can create /var/run/mysql and create a symlink
in that directory pointing at the socket inside /var/www/var/run/mysql..
