	Huh!  I wasn't even aware that MySQL could be configured WITHOUT
ODBC support.  Shows how much I know about MySQL.  (We use Informix
here.)  When we started porting the MySQL XDB adapter, we were just going
to do a straight port.  (The MySQL API is very similar to the ODBC
API.)  But we were told that the MySQL was old and might not work any
longer.  (It was written against server version 0.7)  We never really
tested it on MySQL.  You can feel free to give it a try.  

	If you are on a Red Hat (or compatible) Linux box, you can install
this RPM to get ODBC
support: http://www.mysql.com/Downloads/MyODBC/MyODBC-2.50.31-1.src.rpm

	simply run rpm --rebuild on the source RPM and install the
resulting RPM file(s).
