For folks that are having trouble with clean shutdown on OS X, try using 
mysqladmin -u root -ppw flush-tables
before shutting down mysql.

I hadn't had a shutdown problem in a week then this evening I got the 
dreaded pid file hang at shutdown and had to use kill -9.
The only thing I did differently was I *DID NOT* flush the tables first.

Its all circumstantial, but its all I've got :)
