one of the posts at the bottom of one of those pages mentions that the permissions on the sock file might not be right.

mine is:

srwxrwxrwx  1 mysql    wheel    0 29 May 06:41 mysql.sock

you probably already know all this, but just in case... to get those permissions set up:

    <stop mysqld>

    chown mysql:wheel /tmp/mysql.sock
    chmod 4777 /tmp/mysql.sock

    <restart mysqld>

Sorry, but this is nonsense. mysql.sock is created by mysqld when it starts, and destroyed when it stops. Once you stop mysqld, there won't be any file to chown or chmod.
