It still looks like your PATH is screwed up, /usr/local/mysql/bin  
isn't in there, you have:
/usr/local/mysl:/bin

Here's a test. Open up a terminal and type:

$ which mysql_config

If you don't get an answer back that indicates that the system can  
find the binary, then your script won't either. For instance, this is  
how it looks for me:

$ which mysql_config
/Library/MySQL/bin/mysql_config

(I have an older version of mysql which was installed into /Library/ 
MySQL)

Yours should say:

$ which mysql_config
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config

Or something like that.

Try that and see ...
