Description:
The optional service installed with:

mysqld --install-manual mysqldopt --defaults-file=c:\path\my.ini

doesn't start adequately due to use 3 parameters in argc.

How to repeat:
install the optional service with:

mysqld --install-manual mysqldopt --defaults-file=d:\custom_path\my.ini

start the server with:

net start mysqldopt

and the service fails to start.

Suggested fix:
