Uh. This looked good and I even commited it, until I realized that it
doesn't work. $MYSQL_CONFIG value is YES or NO, not the path. Maybe
there's some other way to make this work.

You could have --with-mysql except a install prefix or path to mysql_config, a lot of other configure scripts do this. Makes for a simpler build.

--with-mysql=/opt/local /** add this to the beginning of the dirs you search for mysql stuff like /usr/local */
or
--with-mysql=/opt/local/bin/mysql_config5
