phpMyAdmin doesn't work with the default PHP settings of mysql.sock... 
/tmp/mysql.sock doesn't exist, so you have to create a symlink

ln -s /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock /tmp/mysql.sock

Or fix the entry in /etc/httpd/php.ini:

; Default socket name for local MySQL connects.  If empty, uses the built-in
; MySQL defaults.
mysql.default_socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock


Maybe this could be fixed with a compile option?
