my current test was to change it to use mysql_config to retrieve the library details which seemed to work.
Does that work all the way back to MySQL 3.23.x? It is important that ext/mysql stays compatible with 3.23 and 4.0 as these client library versions are not supported by ext/mysqli ...
If it's been EOL'd or NLS'd then working on it doesn't make for a sound decision and my time would be better spent learning how to replace mysql calls with mysqli calls if mysqli has been proven to work properly with mysql-ssl connections.
