[Nss-mysql-devel] build (configure) problem

[Max Kalika]

Greetings.

I started playing with nss-mysql.  It works really great, thank you.  I
just wanted to draw your attention to something I had to tweak in order to
build it (well, configure actually).

The check for mysql/mysql.h doesn't work if the mysql package is installed
in a "non-standard" place.  Aside from that, the separate check for
mysql/mysql.h header seems redundant since CHECK_MYSQL() does that -- and
uses proper include paths to boot.

Here's a small patch -- just removes the header check for mysql/mysql.h.

If you have any questions or comments, please respond directly to me as I
am not on the list.  Thank you.
