I see two ways to fix this:

a) Respond to ping (and nothing more) while the blocking is in progress, not sure if this is possible.

b) Block the ping (block the connection) till the server is up. This will work in above circumstance but may not when the process itself is being timed, more like -- timeout 30 mysqladmin ping -- which will be killed anyway if the ping blocks, but should work with existing init scripts.
