I did find that directory.  I created a dir called MySQL within and a file
within that directory like so:

#!/bin/sh

/usr/local/mysql/bin/safe_mysqld &


and made the file executable (chmod 555) but it still didn't work.  This is
basically the same way that other software starts up (albeit with a mo
complex script).  

I'm not sure what to do.  Its not documented anywhere that I can find.
