Not that this is the Cyrus users list, but...

My guess is you downloaded a binary MySQL distribution from www.mysql.com.
 Those do not include the proper dynamic library (libmysqlclient.so). 
Either that, or your --with-mysql= option is set incorrectly.  You want
that to be set to the root of the MySQL install, not the lib directory
within the MySQL install.
