Description:
The documentation in mysql-proxy refers to a group called [proxy] but it does not work and fails to warn in logfile.

I found out in the original bug report asking for the configuration file feature that the correct group in the file is [mysql-proxy]

The binary fails to warn user in log file

How to repeat:
1) create a file called /etc/mysql-proxy.cnf with the following
[proxy]
proxy-address = :3306
2) start the proxy with --defaults-file=/etc/mysql-proxy.cnf

it will ignore the file

Suggested fix:
correct the documentation
warn the user in logfile of this error

The documentation has been fixed to use mysql-proxy as the config file group.
