I'm sorry, you probably think I'm being dense...
but
I (honestly) don't understand what you mean.
Do you mean that one (or other, or both) must *also* be installed for 
php to have any clue that MySQL exists?
A colleague has an identical setup and - AFAIK - didn't install either 
one on this or prior installations of FreeBSD/MySQL/php.
If this is a dense and utterly silly question then please excuse the 
braindead nature of it. Today has been a long and frustrating day.

Thanks for the ongoing help and advice
-Colin
