Geert,

Add the following line to your .jhbuildrc-custom and run `jhbuild buildone libdbi-drivers`:
append_autogenargs("libdbi-drivers", "--enable-mysql --with-mysql-incdir='/path/to/mysqlheaders' --with-mysql-libdir='/path/to/libmysql'")

Obviously, edit the paths. Since I wrote that from memory, you might want to run `configure --help` in the libdbi-drivers source directory and make sure that I got the option names right.
