You seem to be best off with a setup where you've got the MySQL5 UNIX

listening on 127.0.0.1 and a simple port forwarding rule to MySQL4.
Then your clients won't have to change anything and they can migrate to
MySQL5 when they're ready.
Or am I mistaken?
From Yves' last post, I concur with this. It's definitely not optimal
-- you are substantially reducing performance to avoid a simple
parameter that you could easily script (I assumed you would be prepared
to simply specify the socket name as a parameter), but if your
requirement is that clients must connect using default settings, then
this is one way. Personally I'd find another.
