Thank you. This worked. I'd like to propose the following patch
against 4.1.13:

`-fno-rtti' along with `-fno-exceptions'. When in doubt, do the
following:
- CFLAGS="-O3" CXX=gcc CXXFLAGS="-O3 -felide-constructors \
- -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti" ./configure \
+ CFLAGS="-O3"

If you run into problems, _please always use `mysqlbug'_ when
posting questions to a MySQL mailing list. Even if the problem isn't
neelix hgs 97 %>
This is mainly because the variables need to be exported for
recursive make to work correctly, from what I saw.
