This one has now to be reduced to one item -- the library that contains
the link to mysql_real_escape_string().  I just followed the instructions 
in the manual too literally before:  -lmysqlclient is to be replaced by 
  -libmySQL.

I just experienced the effect of rubber ducking.  Some of you will 
know...


If you still have something to add, please tell me!


Thanks.
