I did some detective work: mysql_install_db 5.5 was patched in
Debian/Ubuntu to not create the test database. In 5.6 packaging,
mysql_install_db isn't run during a normal install (the necessary lines
are part of postinst instead), so it was never necessary to patch it to
not create the test database.
If you need a line that works in both 5.5 and 5.6:
mysql --socket=${MYSQL_UNIX_PORT} --execute "CREATE DATABASE
${DO_MYSQL_DBNAME} IF NOT EXISTS;"
The last clause of the SQL string makes sure it doesn't fail if the
database already exists.
Another option is to patch mysql_install_db in 5.6 packaging.
