Yes, what I meant was that I took the "cc...." line libtool expand to,
inserted "-lmysqlclient" and tried link it manually. and it worked.
Making me beleive it is a libtool problem.

Looking inside the "libtool" command and Googling a bit more, I found
an ugly way around this. After generating the "configure" script, I
change it to say

  hpux10.20* | hpux11*)
    lt_cv_deplibs_check_method=pass_all

This makes it let "-lmysqlclient" pass on, I found no way to force
this using any command line flag.

Thanks, I will look into that option,
