Hello, everyone:
safe_mysqld (tested in 4.0.12, I believe present in all other versions) will
insist on using its hard-coded datadir when --defaults-file option is given.
This results in a very counter-intuitive behaviour. One would expect
safe_mysqld to honor everything specified in the defaults file pointed to,
while in fact, the default hard-coded datadir ends up taking precedence.
Suggested fix:
If the argument defaults-file is present, and datadir is specified in the
defaults file, do not pass --datadir argument to mysqld inside safe_mysqld .
