Andrei Zmievski, Henrik Hansen, Antony Lee, PHP manual

Compile PHP with:
--with-mysql=DIR
Which enables MySQL support. The parameter to this option is the MySQL 
install directory and defaults to /usr/local. This is the default 
installation directory of the MySQL distribution.
Bofore doing this you should have a working mysql server installed on 
your system.
PHP 4 comes bundled with MySQL client library and it is enabled by
default, thus obviating the need for --with-mysql, unless you have a
newer version installed somewhere else.
