Hi! After forking DBD::mysql to DBD::MariaDB, I fixed lot of problems with parsing output of mysql_config and finding include paths and libraries in Makefile.PL. Makefile.PL in DBD::MariaDB accepts env variables DBD_MARIADB_CFLAGS DBD_MARIADB_LIBS and override output from mysql_config when env variable DBD_MARIADB_CONFIG is set to "skip". Maybe something similar could work for DBD::mysql. But I do not know as Makefile.PL in DBD::mysql had lot of bugs... Maybe it helps you.
