Check again.
"grep mysql php.ini" shows "mysql.default_socket"
Comment says: default socket name for local MySQL connects. If empty, uses 
the built-in.
So edit your php.ini

I would expect mysql.sock to live in /tmp

Run configure again would help but you need to
-remove the COMPLETE source directory and create a new one from the .gz file
-remove the old config config.cache (not sure with PHP, but needed with 
some apps)

I think I would remove the complete source, just to be sure.

I'm glad my distro (Slackware) doesn't install all kinds of software I 
don't want.
