In general, you'd want to ensure every object file and static library
linked into your program is compiled with the same runtime library
selected /MT[d] or /MD[d], to ensure a proper working environment. If
you were to link with libmysql.lib you'd avoid having to match up
these flags for this particular library for your own code. Mixing and
matching these flags among things linked into a executable or dll is a
recipe for a headache on Windows.

Regarding your question about the directory, you'd more than likely
want to link with the one in the debug directory, I think, to get
useful stack traces into library code when debugging.
