Hi, thanks.  I followed the strategy provided at the following url

http://www.mail-archive.com/dbi-users@perl.org/msg27851.html

by adding "-lmygcc" to the end of the librarys to link. I added it to
the end of this line in the mysql_config script like so:

   libs=" $ldflags -L$pkglibdir -lmysqlclient -lz -lcrypt -lnsl -lm
-lmygcc "

And then I recompiled the MySQL-python-1.2.1 package, but the same
problem remains.
