Installing MySQL on Mac OS X Leopard

From my comrade Dan Benjamin, a detailed guide to installing MySQL on Leopard (or Tiger, for that matter). More of an introduction to Unix nerdery on Mac OS X, with MySQL as the example, than just a simple article. Covers everything from compiling, setting up your .bash_login environment variables, to using launchd to start MySQL automatically.
