No. No. No.
It's close, but it's not the right fix.
But that page actually *links* to the right fix!
As Edward Moy (of Apple) wrote, you have to do the following:
We recently discovered the DBD::mysql problem as well. The patch is
to edit /System/Library/Perl/5.8.1/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Config.pm,
replacing:
ld='MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3 cc'
with
ld='env MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3 cc'
Do that, and DBD::Mysql (and anything else that trips over this bug)
will work just fine.
