Description:
Upgrading to mysql 5.0.x with non default basedir fails.

How to repeat:
shell> mysql_upgrade_shell --basedir=/home/mysql/product/mysql-5.0.72 --datadir=/home/mysql/product/mysql-5.0.72/data --verbose
mysql_upgrade already done for this version
Could not find MySQL command-line client (mysql).
Please use --basedir to specify the directory where MySQL is installed.

Suggested fix:
patch attached.

Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely
to be the same. Because of this, we hope you add your comments to the original bug instead.

Thank you for your interest in MySQL.
