SuSE puts the mysql-includes in /usr/include/mysql, but the libs are in
/usr/lib. So I've changed the configure-Script to:
[...]
                if test -f /usr/include/mysql/mysql.h; then
                        MYSQL_INCDIR=/usr/include/mysql
                        if test -d /usr/lib/mysql; then
                                MYSQL_LIBDIR=/usr/lib/mysql
                        else
                                MYSQL_LIBDIR=/usr/lib
                        fi

This is not a bug by PHPs configuration.  SuSe's MySQL installation is buggy. 
Blame them.

I know that this is a buggy MYSQL installation from SuSE, but I think it is easy to change
and it helps avoiding problems (I had...).  BTW: The MYSQL_LIBDIR-Configuration of the configure script of PHP4.0b3 does this checking...

PS: SuSE got notified...
