I have the feeling they really didn't use the "normal" environment to build the extension. In the build environment the MySQL Connector/C comes as Deus ex Machina, it's not built, but the extension must include the three libraries (the uno component, the Connector/C and Connector/C++ - although they are not linked against each other, they are loaded at runtime). > >These are supposed to be "universal" builds, that is, run on every > >Windows version, and Linux distro (Linux base is CentOS 5 with glibc > >2.5).
