I got this problem too. You can fix it by changing line 83 of the ebuild, which reads: mysqladmin -u ${MY_USER} ${host:+-h ${host}} -p create ${MY_DB} || die "Error creating database" You need to change ${MY_USER} to ${adminuser}
Two new versions have been released with since the solution was provided below, hopefully it will be corrected in the future. Here's the solution agian: "got this problem too.

Fixed in CVS, please test and reopen the bug if the problem persists.
