Hi!

Just seeing file descriptor 2 (standard error) used for socket operations makes me assume *very* strongly that something went wrong well before that part: For some (until now: unknown) reason standard error must have been closed, so that FD 2 became available for the socket creation, and in a MYSQL client application I don't see any reason to ever close standard error. I propose Tim should check the full truss output for some preceding close(2). Hopefully, the surroundings of that call will give a hint what went wrong. (I hope it was caused by some write error, disk full, permission problem, ... which Tim can fix. I of course agree such an error should not make the program do a close(2), but it might happen nonetheless.) That's all I can say here.
