No, my message was saying two things:
1) you don't need to go through all this at all - just get the  
binary, i.e. run
install.packages("RMySQL")
if that doesn't work with your mirror (because it's not in sync yet),  
use
install.packages("RMySQL",,"http://r.research.att.com/")
Before my post the binary was not available due to a problem on my  
build machine, but the source was available and working.

2) if you insist on building RMySQL from sources, make sure the  
PKG_xx flags are set correctly (see the reference I gave), you have  
installed gcc 4.0.3 that comes with R and the latest Xcode tools.

Cheers,
Simon
