[?] Mac Classic, 2.6.1, MySQL

[Chris Sheffield]

Sean,

This is a strange one.  I've seen this before, and if I remember  
correctly, the problem is that database applications, for whatever  
reason, are linked to the Valentina external on Mac Classic.  Whether  
you're building for Valentina or not.  There is a bug report on it,  
though I don't have the number handy.

The workaround is to build your standalone with Valentina support as  
well as MySQL support.  The part I can't remember is if it's  
necessary to include the Valentina library with your standalone or  
not.  You may have to experiment with that.

Hopefully this'll help you get things figured out.

Chris
