Had the same problem installing RoR and using Rails 2.3.2 and mysql 2.8.1.
There is a blog (http://rdc.taobao.com/blog/qa/?p=523&cpage=2.) on the subject. In Windows install "gem install mysql" and ignore the doc error messages. From the blog you do

1. download older MySQL client library, for example one from InstantRails: http://instantrails.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/InstantRails-win/InstantRails/mysql/bin/libmySQL.dll
2. copy the downloaded file to C:\Ruby\bin (or wherever you installed Ruby)
3. restart MySQL server (or restart Windows)
