--- Comment #5 from MMacD <scratch65535@att.net> ---
"Did you set mysql_dbdir in /etc/rc.conf to your datadir?"

Yes, I did finally stumble across that non-standard way of doing it.  It was
gratifying to be able to put data where I want it (under the care of ZFS on=
 a
3-way mirror) but still would have preferred that the standard had been
followed, and don't really understand why it wasn't.

"BTW: Maybe it is time to upgrade to MariaDB 10.1 or MySQL 5.7 as MariaDB 5=
.5
is quite old and officially unsupported."

Actually, finding the bug still alive and un-swatted in v10 was what prompt=
ed
me to add my comment.  I've MariaDB 10.1 running under 10.2 on my
server-of-all-work and under 10.3 on my utility workstation.
