It's now fixed... mysql is disabled by default.

The idea of --enable-* is to say we want and let configure discover 
where it is.

The --with-*=path is to tell configure that the libs are there.

But, yes, that's a bug... or mysql is disable by default and errors if 
user enables it and mysql is not found (user's fault), or if it remains
enabled by default, it should just revert back to disabled if mysql is
not found.
