You cannot link against a Linux version of MySQL.

This is a better idea.

Which version of MySQL?

You'll need to build MySQL on Cygwin (at least the client lib).
I built the server too, I have a patch uploaded:
http://timtowtdi.topcities.com/cygwin/mysql/
There is also my script where you can see which options I used.
I cannot say if a later version will build too, I tried 4.xxx somtimes
and this fails, but it was a beta release, maybe in the meantime
someone there has investigated some time in learning how to use
libtool, so it it may work now.  Just read the manual and look what
has been changed and if you can still use the flags I used.

BTW, the 'tarballs' at this site aren't there, they delete all that is
bigger than 1MB (uploading works fine...).
