Hi Andrew,
judging by a quick look at the source of 5.0.18, I would say, that this is
not possible. You can either bind to one or all addresses.

see sql/mysqld.cc:
case (int) OPT_BIND_ADDRESS:
if ((my_bind_addr= (ulong) inet_addr(argument)) == INADDR_NONE)
{
struct hostent *ent;
if (argument[0])
ent=gethostbyname(argument);
else
{
char myhostname[255];
if (gethostname(myhostname,sizeof(myhostname)) < 0)
{
sql_perror("Can't start server: cannot get my own hostname!");
exit(1);
}
ent=gethostbyname(myhostname);
}
if (!ent)
{
sql_perror("Can't start server: cannot resolve hostname!");
exit(1);
}
my_bind_addr = (ulong) ((in_addr*)ent->h_addr_list[0])->s_addr;
}
break;
