Check out this site:
http://www.entropy.ch/software/MacOSx/mysql/
especially the forums. I remember some issue about the way the tmp/
directory is used. It is a directory that is used by a number of
applications for temporary files and there are issues related to
linking to it and automatically deleting files. I wish I understood
this adequately to explain it myself, but I think you will find some
info on this site to help you. I had some trouble at first getting
things working and since then it has all been so stable that I forgot
the original issues.
Liyanage's site was at least once the gold standard for installing
mysql on a Mac.
