Description:
------------
./configure --help 

produces 

  --with-mysql-sock=DIR   MySQL/MySQLi/PDO_MYSQL: Location of the MySQL unix soc
ket pointer.


The use of DIR is misleading. Please change DIR to SOCK.



Test script:
---------------
./configure --help | grep with-mysql-sock

Expected result:
----------------
  --with-mysql-sock=SOCK   MySQL/MySQLi/PDO_MYSQL: Location of the MySQL unix soc
ket pointer.

Actual result:
--------------
  --with-mysql-sock=DIR   MySQL/MySQLi/PDO_MYSQL: Location of the MySQL unix soc
ket pointer.
