problem getting DBD::mysql working in OS X 10.7

I tried installing Bundle::DBD::mysql via cpan, but got errors about how it couldn't find mysql_config, so I downloaded the DBD::mysql package manually and used perl Makefile.pl --mysql_config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config which is where my mysql_config file lives (it's a standard install for 10.7 from oracle)

That installed correctly, but scripts run by apache on the system fail with the error:

[Thu Dec 29 15:25:25 2011] [error] [client 192.168.1.114] install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't load '/Library/Perl/5.12/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.bundle' for module DBD::mysql: dlopen(/Library/Perl/5.12/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.bundle, 1): Library not loaded: libmysqlclient.18.dylib

Now the original attempt at installing with cpan did fail on the same library, but it's right there:

Any ideas?
