We need to build MySQL from the source distribution and install into a 
staging area, and then copy the contents of that staging area over to 
/usr/local/mysql. During our build process, we cannot modify /usr/local.

The configure script lets us assign a prefix for installation into the 
staging area, but then the MySQL scripts and executables all expect to 
be running from the the staging area, not from /usr/local/mysql.

Is there a way to do this without modifying the configure script (or any 
of the source)? Or is there some utility that can move a MySQL 
installation around, modifying the numerous embedded references to where 
it was originally installed?

Thanks

- Al
