It looks like there were some other changes relating to ${DB_DIR}
disappearing too - specifically, fresh databases are always being created in
/var/db/mysql on installation as well, and the default entry in the rc.d
script is hard-coded as well. It'd be really nice to have the DB_DIR
functionality back in the makefile, I don't see why it is mutually exclusive
with being able to set it in rc.conf.

In the update to MySQL 4.1.10, the mysql41-server port lost its DB_DIR make option. The DB_DIR is now set statically in the compile to /var/db/mysql. This appears to have been part of a "fix" to being able to specify the DB_DIR in rc.conf, but I don't understand why this was taken out at the same time. It should still be possible to specify the database directory passed to mysql's configure script. Fix: Simply add DB_DIR back into the Makefile, and set --localstatedir=${DB_DIR} instead of --localstatedir=/var/db/mysql
