I've been wondering about that myself for a while too :)

MySQL is known to be using that method under FreeBSD for quite some time 
similarly,
by running the the /usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe from 
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.

Any active contributors to the net/asterisk wanna shed some light on 
this mystery?
