mysql_config (4.0.21) returning the wrong socket location

Hi,

I installed a fresh copie of MySQL 4.0.21 on Solaris 8 (Sparc). I did =
put
the following in the my.cnf file:

==================== =====
==========
[mysqld]
User=3Dmysql
Port=3D3306
Socket=3D/usr/local/mysql/mysql.sock
log

[client]
socket=3D/usr/local/mysql/mysql.sock
==================== =====
==========

When I start MySQL, it does create the socket in /usr/local/mysql/. =
When I
(or PHP, or Perl) ask mysql_config about the socket, it returns
"/tmp/mysql.sock"...

nrn6# ls -l /usr/local/mysql/mysql.sock
srwxrwxrwx 1 mysql mysql 0 Oct 21 09:30
/usr/local/mysql/mysql.sock

nrn6# ls -l /tmp/mysql.sock
/tmp/mysql.sock: No such file or directory

nrn6# /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config --socket
/tmp/mysql.sock

Any idea?

I reinstalled MySQL using the
"--with-unix-socket-path=/usr/local/mysql/mysql.sock" option in the
configure string and mysql_config now returns the socket path correctly (I
removed the socket option from the my.cnf). I guess mysql_config should
always return the real path to the socket, that is the one from the
installation files or the my.cnf (that should overwrite the default one).

nrn6# /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config --socket
/usr/local/mysql/mysql.sock

Is it a bug?
