This may or may not be relevant... but i did notice in the release notes for the 5.6.35 version of mysql (the version now being used by our ubuntu 14.04 update)... it looks like work has been done on the mysqld_safe script and use of chown is removed. Is it possible the necessary security lockdown re-introduced the bug.
