You can modify the keyword section of the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server(.sh) and add "nostart"  This
allows you to start it manually with /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server start, but it will not start at boot
time as rcorder skips files with the nostart keyword.  The startup variable can then be in /etc/rc.conf
