That was Jason's quick guess. And having a look at the mysql init script
you will find following comment:

The update from January 5 does it in an even better way (see the
bugzilla mentioned earlier in th thread)

I.e. an "Access denied for user" is also considered as an indication
that the server is up.

If that's the case then I'll update my server. Will see.
