You didn't mention what version of mysql you are using, but this seems to be 
a problem with the mysql startup. authdaemond REQUIRE's mysql, which has 
this in the mysql-server.sh file:

# PROVIDE: mysql
# REQUIRE: NETWORKING SERVERS
# BEFORE: DAEMON
# KEYWORD: shutdown

It is unclear to me why mysqld has to start before DAEMON, and in fact that 
seems bogus, but there may be a good reason for it. At minimum, ldconfig 
should be added to the REQUIRE line, as it is possible for ldconfig to run 
after NETWORKING and SERVERS, but before DAEMON, and still be after 
mysql-server is run.

Try adding ldconfig to the REQUIRE line of your copy of 
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.sh and see if it solves this problem for 
you, and report the results.

hth,
