Errr... oops.  Guess this was partly my fault.

You do not really need to install the full-blown MySQL server, sorry :(
All you need is the client libraries - download the full MySQL source
(it is a single source tarball for everything), then ./configure it with
your favorite values for --prefix and specify --without-server, too :)
This will only build the client libraries.

Once again, sorry for omitting this kinda important detail :(

G'luck,
Peter
