mysqld is looking for host.frm (and friends) in /usr/libexec/mysql which
is not where mysql_iinstall_db put them (it put them in /var/lib/mysql)
so wither rerun mysql_install_db to put things in /usr/libexec or chnage
the safe_mysqld script to look in /var/lib/mysql for it's data (read the
manpage for safe_mysqld for the option to do this.)
