The simplest way is, indeed, speficic to syslog-ng. But looks like it's
what you want anyway :)
syslog-ng can use a file or a unix pipe as a source. Try
source testfile { file("/tmp/logfile" follow_freq(1) flags(no-parse)); };
or
source testpipe { pipe("/tmp/logpipe" flags(no-parse)); };
in your syslog-ng.conf, then use them in log {} directive, and configure
MySQL to log to a specified file or a pipe.
