There has never been a probem with these scripts before. They cannot yes, "command1 & && command2" won't work any longer. please update your mysql ports as there are new startup scripts (or replace mysql & && echo mysql with mysql &; echo mysql) >all develop a problem at once, and furthermore they are the default startup scripts >that come with apps installed from the ports. aside from mysql-server.sh which scripts are failing too? do they include the "& &&" syntax?
