Right. Sometimes aliases are evil:
alias mysql_upgrade='/usr/local/libexec/mysqld --no-defaults --skip-grant-
tables --socket=/tmp/mysql.sock --skip-networking --datadir=/var/db/mysql && 
/usr/local/bin/mysql_upgrade -S /tmp/mysql.sock; killall mysqld'

Though, reading up on his error, I doubt it's the problem.
