--defaults-extra-file=${mysql_dbdir}/my.cnf is just perfect.

What do you meen by ${PREFIX}? It is not set while mysql-server.sh
is executing. Do you meen port's install perfix and therefore
/usr/local/etc/my.cnf or something like /var/db/mysql/etc/my.cnf or
just /etc/my.cnf?

It seems that --defaults-file= and --defaults-extra-file= cannot
be passed as arguments to the mysql server at the same time. So we
should probably use only --defaults-extra-file?
