compiling myodbc 3.51/3.52 on mac

Hello,

New subscriber here....

browsing through the archives, I saw there was someone trying to put 
out a new version of the mac driver... but until that actually happens, 
it seems like it should be a simple matter to compile the driver!

...WRONG!

First, I have the mac os installer version of mysql 4.1.3-beta 
installed.

Now, with myodbc 3.51, it looks like that's not updated to mysql 4.1 -- 
it bombs in catalog.c complaining about the number of params to 
int2str().  I assume that's because the API has changed.

Second, thinking that maybe the newer 3.52 version of myodbc would 
compile, it appears that there are some logical problems with the 
configure process!

After running aclocal and automake, the following configure line was 
used:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/odbc --with-mysql-dirs=/usr/local/mysql 
--without-debug --enable-gui=no --host=powerpc-apple

Unfortunately, upon getting down to the MySQL section:

MySQL CONFIGURATION - CLIENT LIBS AND HEADERS

The following error came up:

configure: error: Could not find 'libmysqlclient.a'. See 'config.log' 
for errors

Obviously /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.a surely exists, and 
seems to work fine.... so it's a configure issue?

Something's missing here... what version of mysql does myodbc 3.51 need 
to be built with?  What is needed to build myodbc 3.52?  How can we 
ever get mac os odbc connectivity?

Thanks for any help anyone can provide!
