I'm wondering if MariaDB (which is the fork of MySQL) could solve the
problems:

http://mariadb.org/

"MariaDB is a database server that offers drop-in replacement
functionality for MySQL. MariaDB is built by some of the original
authors of MySQL, with assistance from the broader community of Free
and open source software developers. In addition to the core
functionality of MySQL, MariaDB offers a rich set of feature
enhancements including alternate storage engines, server
optimizations, and patches."
