You were right, it's a bug in the MySQL startup script:

http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=1815

"[..] output of "/etc/init.d/mysql start" [..] is piped into script
which reads stdin - pipe is never closed."

Fixed in MySQL Server 4.0.17.

BTW: In addition to 'dumb' mode, may I suggest a
"useshell=force_close_std[err|in|out]" option to processes that closes
the corresponding pipe?
