$ file libmysqlclient.16.0.0.dylib

So this is what I'd do:
get the dmg installer for both PPC and Intel for 10.4 from MySQL.
copy the intallers to your hard drive, and unpack Contents/Archive.pax.gz
poke around in there, and you'll find the dynlibs.

machine properly, and then use lipo to add the other one to the copy
that's on that machine.
