     What good will it be to get a volunteer to build a mysql connector 
for 4.0 if the connector can not be build? There are problems on OS X 
and LInux because of changes made in autogen.sh. This needs to be fixed 
first before finding a volunteer.
     Until recently, this is used to configure the connector:
./autogen.sh --enable-ext-mysql-connector --with-system-mysql.

     In the last couple of days, this has been changed (without 
seemingly any documentation on this mailing list) to:
./autogen.sh --enable-ext-mariadb-connector --with-system-mariadb.

     One other problem in building this connector that did not exist 
prior to the change from mysql to mariadb: autogen.sh does not find the 
installed version of mariadb. This also prevents building the connector.
     This is the output containing the errors:

checking whether to build the MariaDB/MySQL Connector extension... yes
checking which MariaDB to use... external
checking for mariadb_config... no
checking MariaDB version... ./configure: line 21356: --version: command 
not found
./configure: line 21357: --version: command not found
./configure: line 21358: test: : integer expression expected
configure: error: too old, use 5.0.x or 5.1.x
Error running configure at ./autogen.sh line 201.
     It appears that this problem should be corrected first before 
trying to build the MariaDB/MySQL connector.
