It looks like this is a consequence of our module loading system.  If you move or remove OpenSim.Data.Tests.dll then 
OpenSim may start correctly without the MySQL library (it does on my local master).  For some reason, module loading is 
loading OpenSim.Data.Tests.dll and then trying to resolve the MySQL libraries that it references further on.

I discovered this by first removing Data.MySQL.dll and then working back along the chain of resolution problems it 
complained about.
