Hi Sebastian.  Another option you "may" want to entertain is the Rdbi
packages from GRASS, http://grass.itc.it/statsgrass/r_and_dbms.html.  This
page begins with Postgresql but does have an option for MySQL.  I'm running
FreeBSD and unixODBC and never got RODBC running as it should.  Also, the
stats these guys thow up from a speed standpoint are fairly impressive.
Again, another option for you to consider if you haven't already.
