Do you really want to fail the entire operation if the directory doesn't
exist?  Shouldn't you instead exit 0 because there is nothing to do?

This is unsafe (although the worst that will happen is a poor message to
the log file).  $file might contain backslash, and echo cannot portably
be mixed with backslash.  Use printf(1) instead.

Again.

Safe as written, since you just initialized $MYSQL above; but risky,
since the mere use of MYSQL in the initialization might encourage
someone to point to an alternate path that includes spaces.  Then again,
if they do that, then MYSQL_CMD is broken.  It might be better to be
explicit and write
 [ -x "$MYSQL" ] && "$MYSQL" $MYSQL_OPTS < /dev/null
but I won't insist.

POSIX says that 'trap foo INT' is required to work, but 'trap foo
SIGINT' is optional.  Also, shouldn't you also worry about HUP, ALRM,
and TERM?
