A book indexed by google says that [client] section is also read along with the custom group. The example is shown with Perl, but I guess the same client library is behind. Same seems to be suggested in the perl docs:
i gave up on using [group] because of kamailio didn't start. these tests are thus done just using the default [client] group.
Now, those can be old, maybe newer versions of mysql client library behave differently.
i would expect mysql cli client from debian wheezy mysql-client-5.5 package to use libmysqlclient18 package, i.e., the same one my kamailio is using.
Have you tried to put all wanted options to the group?
i have all wanted options in [client] group:
[client] port = 3306 socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock ssl-ca=/etc/mysql/cacert.pem
according to mysql 5.5 ref man, ssl-ca option implies ssl option and those are enough for mysql cli client to use ssl.
