mysqld_install_db hangs on install

[Josh Lucas <lucas@xxxxxxxxxx>]

>Description:
        The mysql_install_db script hangs when I try to install mysql.  I've tried a src rpm, a binary rpm and the binaries.  When you run mysql_install_db, three different mysqld's are started but none actually do anything.  They are all just sitting there.
