Comment 9 for bug 505705

As for the lirc part, the last 0.9.4 release solves this since the lircd output socket is created at an very early point in the boot sequence. lircd is started using socket activation when irexec or some otther client connects to the socket. So, no race is possible.

IMHO, mysql should do the same, and might indeed have so already. Don't know, closing as fixed.
