I do.

The function scramble() inside of libmysql uses floor() which is part 
of libm (libmath).  Barnyard's autoconf tests don't check for floor in 
libm.

You'll have to add this to configure.in and then regenerate the 
configure script (using the instructions from my previous email):

AC_CHECK_LIB(m, floor,,)

Add that somewhere around line 137 in configure.in (before 
AC_CHECK_FUNCS(vsnprintf.......)
