Didn’t start the server yet (too late), but the only oddity I noticed was that include & lib files were buried one level deeper. That is, lib files were at “/opt/local/mysql/lib/mysql” instead of “/opt/local/mysql/lib”. I set –prefix=/opt/local/mysql but it still built in that manner.

[Builiding in /opt/local to avoid the binary install]

Hope this helps with intel build.

Might be as simple as deleting the "disable-shared" option to produce shared libraries. Output from "./configure --help" shows that both static and shared are produced by default.
