"error while loading shared libraries: libmysqlclient.so.15:" Huh?

I infrequently get the error "error while loading shared libraries: libmysqlclient.so.15:" when running a C program that queries a mySQL 5
DB, calls a stored procedure and does a LOAD DATA INFILE. The code is run as
a daily cron job on a CentOS 6.4 box and the error might not happen for days but once it occurs I have to re-compile the source code to get it working again.

The strange thing is, I thought executables on Linux were stand-alone and didn't
need to load any libraries on the fly in order to function.

Here's the gcc command line I'm using to compile the code:

gcc -o ImportData.out $(mysql_config --cflags) ImportData.c $(mysql_config --libs)

The program compiles w/no errors and by verifying the mySQL 5 tables are created correctly and all the data imported into the tables appears to work correctly.

Google didn't really turn up anything useful which is why I'm here now.
