Why is DBD broken?

Sorry, but I never had a problem like this ever before with perl...

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

I am RH9 on a 2.4.20-31.9 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

I did

slocate libmysqlclient.so
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/mysql-4.1.2-alpha/libmysql/.libs/lib mysqlclient.so.14.0.0
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/mysql-4.1.2-alpha/libmysql/.libs/lib mysqlclient.so.14
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/mysql-4.1.2-alpha/libmysql/.libs/lib mysqlclient.so


then


cp \
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/mysql-4.1.2-alpha/libmysql/.libs/lib mysqlclient.so \
/usr/lib/mysql

mysql_config --libs
-L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lz -lcrypt -lnsl -lm


perl Makefile.PL
I will use the following settings for compiling and testing:

cflags (mysql_config) = -I/usr/include/mysql -g -pipe -march=i386
-mcpu=i686 libs (mysql_config) = -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient
-lz -lcrypt -lnsl -lm nocatchstderr (default ) = 0
nofoundrows (default ) = 0
ssl (guessed ) = 0
testdb (default ) = test
testhost (default ) =
testpassword (default ) =
testuser (default ) =


make

I am sick up to my teeth of this problem (sorry).

Any kind suggestions would be graciously received.

All the best,
Dan.
