Ok, I thought there was one. Yesterday, I was trying to install
FreeRADIUS on a box that already had MySQL installed on it (from
source, not ports) and it was having a problem locating
rlm_sql_mysql.so. Searching, I found I had to install mysql-devel.

This morning, I am installing on a fresh install (5.2.1), and actually
never crossed my mind to install freeradius port first, and let it
handle the mysql dependencies. I am trying that now...

Tks for the reminder, that ports will build in their own dependencies ;o)
