 I tried MariaDB today (older version: 5.5.31) as a replacement for MySQL 
 5.5 and I found this problem with not using my.cnf from 
 /usr/local/etc/my.cnf
 
 The old behavior in MySQL 5.5 was this:
 
 # my_print_defaults --help | grep -A1 'Default options'
 Default options are read from the following files in the given order:
 /etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf /usr/local/etc/my.cnf 
 /usr/local/etc/mysql/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf
 
 MariaDB uses only these:
 
 # my_print_defaults --help | grep -A1 'Default options'
 Default options are read from the following files in the given order:
 /etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf
 
 So I propose to do the same as original MySQL 5.5 above
