Thanks!  That gets me a working mysql connector in a straight IRB
session, but I seem to be going down some slippery slope with finding
the mysqlplus adapters for Rails...googling around has me trying out
the neverblock and eventengine in order to get a "neverblock_mysql"
driver.  I wasn't able to get Mongrel going on 1.9, but I did get Thin
going.  However, I just get blank pages all around with a "you have a
nil object where you probably didn't expected" emitted on the Thin
console.

If you know of a blog or some documentation with getting a mysqlplus
adapter installed into Rails env, I'd be much obliged.
