[Marc Deslauriers]
* debian/mysql-server-5.0.preinst: Set mysql user's home directory
  to /nonexistent to protect against having the /var/lib/mysql
  user-writeable. If an attacker can trick mysqld into creating
  dot files in the home directory, he could do .rhost-like attacks
  on the system. (LP: #293258) 

[Chuck Short]
* debian/mysql-server-5.1.mysql.upstart: Dont wait forever for a ping from 
  the mysql server. It might not be configured properly. (LP: #551097)
