I'm running mysql-5.1.51 which is the latest marked stable in Gentoo.
Does this still apply?
No, just 5.5.7.

I've also tried specifying my root password with --password and also
specifying -u mysql but it still fails with error 1045. My
/etc/passwd file looks like there is no password for user mysql. What
else should I try?
Is this 5.5.7? You have to run the server with --skip-grant-tables, then run
mysql_upgrade.
I'm running mysql-5.1.51 which is the latest marked stable in Gentoo.
Does this still apply? I always use Gentoo's mysql initscript so I'm
trying to find the correct command to start mysqld wtih
--skip-grant-tables.
