OK I got it to compile.... I cheated. Installed from a fresh FC5 installation is mysql-5.0.18-2.1 I downloaded a complete generic version of mysql, the next release (5.0.19) and COPIED only the libmygcc.a and the libmysqlclient.a and placed them into the /var/lib/mysql directory AFTER I backed up any file that was going to be overwritten. In this case only the libmysqlclient.a needed to be backed up. I then ran make clean again to insure I did a clean compile, then ran make, then make setup check. It all compiled cleanly and installed. Go figure. YES, I should recompile MySQL, but this is a test base. Thanks to all for your ideas,comments and thoughts.
