Could this be related to the problems which cause mysql to be almost
un-killable on MacOS X? I have tried to use mysqladmin to stop the server,
but the only thing that will do it is 'kill -9', and if I had started it
with safe_mysqld, then it comes bouncing right back. I can't even find
safe_mysqld in the process list in order to kill it first. This is 3.23.40.
