I've successfully built and tested DBD-mysql-2.1017:

mysql  Ver 11.15 Distrib 3.23.37, for suse-linux (i686)
perl 5.8.0

The tests were done using an external host:
perl Makefile.PL -testhost=xxx

With this configuration t/dbdadmin.t core dumps in the statement
line 121: if (!($result = $drh->func('createdb', $testdsn, 'admin'))

Using the long form without the defaults:
if (!($result = $drh->func('createdb', $testdsn, 'xxx', '', '', 'admin'))

then the testsuite finishes smoothly.

I would suggest modifying the testsuite so that the module could be
installed without manual intervention even in cases as described above
