-p <port> is never going to work. You need -P because -p is used to
supply a password. Try:

	mysql --host=localhost --port=<port> --protocol=tcp

My native Mysql 5.5 is listening on port 9092, so this works:

	mysql --host=localhost --port=9092 --protocol=tcp

All three arguments must be supplied or it complains about not being
able to use a pipe connection. Similarly, this works:

	telnet localhost 9092

and spits out gobbledegook. Ctrl-C cancels.
