Thanks.  However, it complains if you try to install it twice:

-------
===>  Installing for mysql-3.20.22
===>  mysql-3.20.22 depends on executable: perl5.004 - found

You appear to already have a mysql database directory in /var/db/mysql.

In order to preserve your existing data, you should:
        - dump all your databases
        - kill mysql if it is running
        - delete the /var/db/mysql directory
        - run 'make install'
        - start up mysql
        - re-create all of your database
        - re-load your data

If you understand the consequences of this upgrade, please re-build this
port with the environment variable OVERWRITE_DB defined.

*** Error code 1

Stop.

I'd add OVERWRITE_DB to MAKE_ENV but I don't understand the
consequences.  James, what should I do?
