According to manual mysql_connect() does not expect necessarily a socket
file (actually, ":/path/to/socket" support was added at a later time).

I haven't tried it myself with PHP so it's just a guess but... Once the
tunnel if open, can't you simply connect through it using host+port as
usual? The idea of a tunnel is that applications don't have to know about
it.
