But:

$ cat /etc/opt/csw/my.cnf 
[mysqld]
max_allowed_packet=64M

how do you explain that? And, of course, the database server was started
after the insertion of these lines.

It wasn't clear at all ant, BTW I dare to disagree with the idea that
cswutils should not contain pkgdb and it must be run from mgar. The use
case for which I care is when the database server is not the building
machine.
