For mysql you're going to want to read about the SUBPACKAGE variable in 
bsd.port.mk(5). I believe mysql will build all the separate packages by
default but only install the -client SUBPACKAGE.

You can install the other subpackages with sudo env SUBPACKAGE="-server"
make install or by using pkg_add on the package in
/usr/ports/packages/${ARCH}/all/
