I'm installing mysql to a non-standard location (for both etc & db). The
existing port permits one to set --defaults-extra-file with the mysql_optfile
setting but mysqld is still reading /usr/local/etc/mysql/my.cnf. I want finer
control and would like to point mysqld at a localized my.cnf.

Suggested fix:

sysrc mysql_defaults_file=/some/etc/my.cnf

Having set that variable, mysql would then have
'--defaults-file=/some/etc/my.cnf' inserted into the initialization and startup
invocations of mysqld.

Is there a way to submit a PR against the ports tree yet?
