For what it's worth I installed MySQL 5.6.13 on OS X.
In the wiki for the MySQL setup instructions, it talks about opening up the bind-address so more than the local host can connect to the database.
I didn't need to create/edit the my.cnf at all. Maybe it was related to the changes since 5.6.6 as shown here:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/s...nd-address
I can confirm that editing the my.cfg isn't necessary for OS X, it works by default. In fact, the entirety of Step 4 in that section is no longer necessary, making things a lot simpler.
I don't have access to edit the wiki, but if someone wanted to update this it might help others.
