 I would like to see the XtraDB Storage Engine added as a variant to the
 mysql5 port.

 This Storage Engine is developed at Percona Labs and is currently at
 Version 1.0.6-9. It provides an enhanced version of the InnoDB plugin with
 patches that are not part of the standard InnoDB Plugin provided with
 MySQL 5.1.

 I believe that this plugin would be installed as a variant as it would
 need to be compiled at the time MySQL is compiled.

 The in the case of version 1.0.6-9, the portfile would need to download
 percona-xtradb-1.0.6-9.tar.gz from https://launchpad.net/percona-xtradb
 and build it from "sources" the same way one would build the InnoDB plugin
 from sources (see http://www.percona.com/docs/wiki/percona-
 xtradb:info:faq)

 Thanks,

 Caio
