You really don't need to call /usr/local/libexec/mysqld directly.
see man mysqld_safe(1)
you also need to run /usr/local/bin/mysql_install_db to install the initial db file structure.
in order to start mysqld for the first time, I did:
# /usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql --dbdir=/path/to/my/db
then secured the initial accounts, etc, etc, etc. This stuff is all covered in the MySQL manual, which should be installed on your system in several formats in:
/usr/local/share/doc/mysql
Good luck!
