Problem installing DBD against 4.1.3 on MacOS 10.3.5

DBI 1.43,
mysql Ver 14.5 Distrib 4.1.3-beta,
DBD 2.9004
Perl 5.8.1

Here's the first error:

/usr/bin/perl /System/Library/Perl/5.8.1/ExtUtils/xsubpp -typemap
/System/Library/Perl/5.8.1/ExtUtils/typemap mysql.xs > mysql.xsc && mv
mysql.xsc mysql.c

mysql.xs: In function `XS_DBD__mysql__GetInfo_dbd_mysql_get_info':
mysql.xs:359: error: `net_buffer_length' undeclared (first use in this
function)
mysql.xs:359: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
mysql.xs:359: error: for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [mysql.o] Error 1

mysql.h has:
#if !defined(MYSQL_CLIENT) && !defined(MYSQL_SERVER) &&
!defined(EMBEDDED_LIBRARY)
#define max_allowed_packet
(*mysql_get_parameters()->p_max_allowed_packet)
#define net_buffer_length (*mysql_get_parameters()->p_net_buffer_length)
#endif

The conditional define is breaking the compile. Probably a poorly
installed mysql, though I compared mysql.h on the mac to the same
version on linux, and the conditional didn't include MYSQL_CLIENT.

I copied the net_buffer_length definition into constants.h, and it
worked ok, until I ran into this:

LD_RUN_PATH="/usr/lib" /usr/bin/perl myld MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3
cc -bundle -undefined dynamic_lookup -L/usr/local/lib dbdimp.o mysql.o
-o blib/arch/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.bundle
-L/usr/local/mysql-standard-4.1.3-beta-apple-darwin6.8-power pc/lib
-lmysqlclient -lz -lm
make: *** [blib/arch/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.bundle] Error 255

The offender is the myld script, which fails on a non-zero return value
from the system call - even though a value of 255 >>8 (as perl likes)
should be zero. Not sure why the lower 8 bits aren't cleared, but
removing the myld call from the makefile seemed to clear things up.

I've got it installed, and it connects to the db fine - haven't done
any more testing, so I can't guarantee my workarounds are ok, so YMMV.
