mtstat, port!=3306

[Monty Taylor]

I'm trying to run mtstat for MySQL running on other than 3306 (e.g.
port=3307).

Modifying ~/.my.cnf doesn't work:
[mtstat]
port=3307
user=root
password=rootpass
host=127.0.0.1

If modifying ./mtstat_mysql/mysqlbase.py like this, it works.
    db=MySQLdb.Connect(port=3307,read_default_group='mtstat')

Do you know the reason and how to work with configuration file?

Confirmed that this is, in fact, the case.

This is actually a bug in MySQLdb upstream.

Possible workarounds seem a little ugly at the moment. I'll see what I can come up with...
