Glad you found the problem. If you think this may be a problem specific to
MySQLdb you should report it as a bug on the
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python site. Or, if it's a bug in
distutils, report it on http://sourceforge.net/projects/python.

If you need any help reporting the bug you can email me.
