A user could not override system-wide settings in their ~/.my.cnf, because the DEFAULT_SYSCONFDIR was being searched last. Also, in some configurations (especially when the --sysconfdir compile-time option is set to /etc or /etc/mysql), the system-wide my.cnf file was read multiple times, causing confusion and potential problems. Rearrange default directories to conform to the manual and logic. Move --sysconfdir=<path> (DEFAULT_SYSCONFDIR) from the last default directory to the middle of the list. $HOME/.my.cnf should be last, so the user is able to override the system-wide settings. Change init_default_directories() to remove duplicates from the list.
