I'd suggest using a statically linked binary from the MySQL web
site. The fact that it's statically linked means that you don't have
to worry about other libraries that may or may not be buggy on your
system.

It sounds like you've done that, but if that's the case you should see
the same behavior on both systems. Are the MySQL configuration files
the same on both machines?
