Yep, I know, but it turns out that it's pretty handy to have a couple of 
different versions installed so I can try to track down issues between 
different versions.

So I've been untarring the stock binary distributions into 
/usr/local/mysql-VERSION and then symlinking whichever version I'm using 
 to /usr/local/mysql.

Works well so far.  :)
