Ah.  I added it to a different automake LD* variable previously.  Now 
I'm getting a cygmysqlpp-2.dll, which I wasn't before.  This is 
progress, though incomplete....

Really?  Why?

This is a fair inconvenience because Cygwin builds of MySQL aren't easy 
to come by, probably because the official Win32 build of MySQL works so 
well.

I would rather continue with my present scheme, which is using an import 
library for the native build's DLL.  This is, in effect, a "shared 
libmysqlclient library", but I have a feeling that you mean a 
Cygwin-built .so file instead.

Now that I have the MySQL++ DLL building, I have a new problem, which is 
that the examples segfault as soon as they try to use anything from the 
DLL.  Is this due to using an import library to link to a VC++-built DLL 
instead of a Cygwin-built .so file?

I'll add that to the MySQL++ FAQ.

FWIW, I always use the installed autotools (not the ones in the 
tarball), as I always use the autotools in "maintainer mode".

The README.unix file recommends that people use the --includedir 
configure flag to effect this.

I got it...it seems to just be all the autotools-generated stuff.  Did I 
miss a subtlety, skipping over all that?

Thanks for your help so far, Gerrit.
