Looking at the change, it seems a nightmare^W big work.

MySQL haven't change the soname (still .18) of libmysqlclient and now
manage the library exports, but in a different way, with different
symbols than in the fedora package...

I suspect a lot of problems...

And we could probably expect a soname name bump (like between 5.5.9 and
5.5.10 iirc).
