I was playing with this recently (mysql-4.0.13). I found the following
problems:

1) Underscore mismatches when using the x86 optimized assembler
implementation of string functions. Workaround: --disable-assembler

2) Missing $(EXEEXT) causes make to invoke an implicit rule, generating a
huge amount of nonsensical errors. Patch:

3) The long standing server problem. It seems like the complex C++ is
confusing gcc?

Max.
