Notice the "." just after the prompt?  This dot means "start down this directory path specification from the directory 
you are currently in."

That means you're not running (or attempting to run)  "/usr/local/mysql/bin" anything, bur rather attempting to run 
"whatever_dir_i_am_in/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_safe --with-user=mysql".  Unless you are in the "/" dir the mysqld 
executable would not be found.

Hope that helps!
