I reinstalled MySQL using the
"--with-unix-socket-path=/usr/local/mysql/mysql.sock" option in the
configure string and mysql_config now returns the socket path correctly (I
removed the socket option from the my.cnf). I guess mysql_config should
always return the real path to the socket, that is the one from the
installation files or the my.cnf (that should overwrite the default one).

nrn6# /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config --socket
/usr/local/mysql/mysql.sock

Is it a bug?
