Replying to myself...
Apparently my MySQL problem is just a consequence of another problem. It
seems I am not able to use any non-root users. Since MySQL uses the
mysql user, that is probably the cause.
root@warthog:/# su user1
Cannot execute /bin/bash: Permission denied
root@warthog:/# ls /bin/bash -alF
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 725100 2009-03-01 10:31 /bin/bash*
So probably there is some authentification issue somewhere. Keep on looking.
