Description:
------------
The option --with-mysql-sock to the configure script is completely ignored, and causes PHP to still access /tmp/mysql.sock, which is the hard-coded value from header files.

Any alternate values from /etc/my.cnf are also ignored.

Use of php.ini is not feasible in my specific application.


Expected result:
----------------
That --with-mysql-sock indicates the default value for the mysql socket. (which may be altered by a config file)

Are you compiling the MySQL extension against external or 
bundled libmysql? 
Check your phpinfo() output, what does MYSQL_SOCKET show 
for it's value?

I linked it against a MySQL built from sources.

I was able to make a workaround for this bug by editing the MySQL header file where a default was defined.

What meaning does --with-mysql-sock have if it doesn't have any effect???

It works fine here and it worked fine before.

Further analysis has revealed that the problem originates with PHP taking the socket defined in /usr/local/include/mysql/mysql_version.h for granted, even though MySQL is built with an alternate socket. The issue that PHP:s configure script completely ignores the --with-mysql-sock remains.

To re-create the error:
Build MySQL from sources using:
?	./configure \
        --enable-assembler \
        --with-unix-socket=/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock \
        --without-debug \
        --with-openssl \
        --with-openssl-includes=/usr/local/ssl/include \
        --with-openssl-libs=/usr/local/ssl/lib

And build PHP with:
?	./configure \
        --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs \
        --with-zlib \
        --enable-calendar \
        --with-mysql=/usr/local \
        --with-mysql-sock=/var/run/mysql/mysqld.sock \
        --with-ncurses \
        --with-gettext \
        --with-xml \
        --with-imap=/root/download/imap-2004 \
        --with-imap-ssl=/usr/local/ssl \
        --with-java=$JAVA_HOME

You're doing something wrong. This works fine for me too on dozen different servers and configurations from Linux to MacOSX.
