This may  have been  necessary in  the past  but it  doesn't seem  to be
necessary now.  I have been setting  up mysqld (5.0 currently)  with the
following run script without problems:

#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/sbin/mysqld \
  --datadir=/var/lib/mysql/data \
  --basedir=/usr/mysql \
  --skip-locking \
  --user=mysql 2>&1

Paths  will most  certainly be  different, but  I have  had no  problems
supervising it.
