Installing DBD::mysql on MacOSX 10.3.2 (panther)

I am having great difficulty installing DBD::mysql on MacOSX 10.3.2
Server (panther). The full build log is below. The command I used to
install was:

   perl -MCPAN -e 'install "DBD::mysql"'

I am using the recent version of mysql installed from FINK.

Any ideas?

(If there is a better forum for this question, please let me know.)

   CPAN.pm: Going to build R/RU/RUDY/DBD-mysql-2.9003.tar.gz

I will use the following settings for compiling and testing:

   cflags (mysql_config) = -I/usr/include/mysql -O3
-fno-omit-frame-pointer -arch i386 -arch ppc -pipe
   libs (mysql_config) = -arch i386 -arch ppc -pipe
-L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lz -lm
   nocatchstderr (default ) = 0
   nofoundrows (default ) = 0
   ssl (guessed ) = 0
   testdb (default ) = test
   testhost (default ) =
   testpassword (default ) =
   testuser (default ) =

To change these settings, see 'perl Makefile.PL --help' and
'perldoc INSTALL'.
