# ln -s /etc/init.d/mysql /etc/init.d/mysqld

I'm about to release my MariaDB 64bits RPM's soon at Axivo repository, as
soon as I find sponsors to host the packages with a mirrorlist. The packages
have mysqld as init script and include all needed patches for Redhat/CentOD
environment, as well few minor compile corrections. They are tailored for
Intel (-mtune=nocona) and perform about 40% faster than official RPM, 65%
faster than Percona 5.5.10-20.1 and 82% faster than MySQL 5.5.11.
