+mSQL v2.0 beta 5 and above make changes to the AVL index format of your
+databases.  In order to preserve your existing data, you must:
+	- use msqldump to dump all your databases
+	- install beta 5 or above
+	- use msqladmin to drop and then create each of your databases
+	- use msql to reload your data
+
+If you understand the consequences of this upgrade, please re-build this
+port with the environment variable OVERWRITE_DB defined.
