Check that there really is an MySQL library linked in there. There's
some command which tells you what's in a binary, but I can never
remember the name.

That does suggest an incorrect binary. Have a look in the file config.h
in the build directory, just to double check that it has got
#define LOOKUP_MYSQL yes
in it. If not, try "make clean" and rebuild.
