I would suggest you modify your /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/php.spec instead, as you
do want the build to be as similar to the official RHEL version as possible
and by default just rebuilding the sourceRPM you will get the mysql support too.
rpmbuild -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/php.spec
this will generate new RPMs in your /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386, I do suggest
you update the RPM revision number with one, this way you can update the
installed version with 'rpm -Uvh <packages>'.
I do suggest you use the sourceRPM from Fedora Core 5/6 when you build your
new mysql, this way you will keep the RPM system working.
