Note that --with-mysql=/usr/bin/mysql is obviously wrong. /usr/bin/mysql
is the command-line MySQL client. --with-mysql takes the top-level
directory below which the lib and header files can be found, so in your
case you want --with-mysql=/usr

A typical set of flags for building against libmysqlclient would be:

--with-mysql=/usr
--with-pdo-mysql=/usr
--with-mysqli=/usr/bin/mysql_config

Or as Ferenc suggested, use mysqlnd

eg.

--with-mysql=mysqlnd
--with-pdo-mysql=mysqlnd
--with-mysqli=mysqlnd
--with-mysql-sock=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
