Description:
------------
At least Visual Studio DLL dependency walker shows that in '5.0.0b4 win32 zip binary' the php_mysql.dll extension supports mysql_create_db() and mysql_drop_db() functions as do the mySQL 3.x client libraries. Fine.
But these 2 functions are dropped in version 4.x and 5.x libmySQL.dll. So trying to use newer mysql client libraries with php5 (as suggested) results an error.

In general it is a request to include both php_mysql3.dll and php_mysql45.dll in the package. Although it's sure easy to self-recompile the php_mysql.dll without these 2 functions.

Additional information:

Default manual install and conf of PHP5 and MySQL5 on W2K, IIS. Everything worked fine.
As I needed MySQL new features (multiple recordsets), I followed the suggestions of both php.net and mysql.com and placed mysql.com provided client library libmysql.dll (version 5) into /system32.
After restarting web server, get the following error at first php-file request: 
PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:\php\ext\php_mysql.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found.

Newer snapshots contain php_mysqli.dll and libmysqli.dll which should be used to get newer functionality with mysql. Old mysql extension is not going to be changed from using 3.x version of the client library.
