PHP won't work with MySQL: help!

[Kimball Larsen]

The php build that comes with YDL 2.2 is broken.  In order to make mysql
work with it correctly, you will need to build your own php.  In my
case, I am going to go a step farther and build my own mysql, apache,
and php.

If you find that I am wrong, I would love to find out how you fixed it
and save myself the trouble of building from source.
