Trying to compile MyODBC on my RH 9 system. Running ./configure with
directions given to mysql/lib, mysql/include, mysql/src I get the
following error:

gcc -o conftest -g -O2   conftest.c -lmysqlclient  -L/usr/local/mysql/lib
-lz  1>&5

/usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.a(my_malloc.o)(.text+0x28): In

undefined references to `errno' follow

On Google I found a post from early 2003 with the exact error messages and
the solution offered was to add -lc to the gcc command. I'd like to try
that but don't know the syntax for adding the -lc options in the configure
command (assuming that's how it's done). Can anyone here help me out?
