Compiling Problem with DBD 2.9008 on ia64

Hello All,

I am having a problem getting DBD to compile on my SGI Altix with Itanium2
processors. I've downloaded the MySQL binary,
mysql-standard-4.1.12-unknown-linux-gnu-ia64-icc-glibc23, and it appears
to run fine.

When I try to do a make on DBD however I get errors that tell me: gprel
relocation against dynamic symbol

From what I understand this is because I am running a MySQL that hasn't
been configured with --with-pic. Do I need to download and recompile
MySQL? I'm hesitant to do this, as the binary package as already been
compiled with the Intel Compilers. Although I do have the 9.0 compilers, I
fear it may be a whole pile of steps backwards as I try to get it to
compile.

Please Advise,
Chris Marzullo

The recommendation is, using only binaries compiled with the same
compiler. That includes MySQL, and Perl.

Note, that you have the option to compile the client part only by
using the configure option --without-server.
