trying to build dbd::mysql on solaris 8, sunfreeware mysql 5.0.67

[Harold Lilly]

Installed mysql 5.0.67 from sunfreeware on solaris 5.8. I am trying to build DBD::Mysql 4.010 against this installation with a custom perl installation (interwoven teamsite). I already have DBD::Oracle running successfully.

I am running this command:

/opt/iw-home/iw-perl/bin/iwperl Makefile.PL --mysql_config /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql --testuser=root --cflags=-I/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql/ --libs=-L/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/

but it is freezing after showing this on the console:

/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql: unknown option '--testpassword'
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql: unknown option '--testsocket'
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql: unknown option '--embedded'
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql: unknown option '--nocatchstderr'
