MySQL will generally create whatever socket it needs to communicate on
when it starts up.  It's automatic.  Not seeing the socket after portupgrade
probably just means that MySQL isn't running (MySQL will get shutdown during
the portupgrade process) although I can't honestly remember if MySQL removes
the socket as part of the shutdown process.
