My debugging shows that the compiler (actually ldw.exe, the linker) is looking for libmysqlclient.a. Renaming the libmysql.dll or libmysqlclient.lib to libmysqlclient.a solvers the error about -lmysqlclient but shows a new error about -lm.

The MySQL manual states you need to link libmysql.lib to use libmysql.dll. I guess I need to get a working libm.a from somewhere, maybe cygwin.
