These problems are probably caused by changes between the version of MySQL
that you are using and the one I used when writing mysqlclient.ss. It's
unfortunately pretty sensitive.
I have a new version of the library, written using the foreign interface, that
provides a Scheme interface for version 10, 12, and 14 of the libmysqlclient
library (ie. version 3.23, 4.0, and 4.1, respectively, of MySQL). It seems to
be a much less flaky package, and I hope to make it available soon (within a
week) on PLaneT. If you can wait, I'd recommend using this. If not, let me
know what version of MySQL you are using (from mysql_version.h) and I can send
you a patch.
