On the 'mysqlinstalldb' command, there needs to be a space between the 'whoami' and the '--basedir' - for me it was a cut&paste gotcha. Otherwise, this was a great help in removing a munged installation, because the filesystem locations seem to be different for each Mac OS and this is the only one I found for Mavericks that pointed me to /usr/local/var/mysql, where all the 'bad' stuff was hiding.
