This could be either a bug in your system libraries or in your compiler. Unfortunately the only option to solve this is to debug the MySQL binary and find out what is happening. Please consult the MySQL manual entry 'Debugging a MySQL server'. If you are not able to debug this yourself, you should also consider getting commercial support from MySQL AB so that we can put a developer to login to you system and debug this for you.

It's enough to just check for mysqld; The easyest way to do that is to use 'mysqladmin ping'

pdharini> Please let me know your comments.
