Bug Type:         Bug
Bug description:configure script searches for lib<mysqlibname>.*

Description:
------------
In configure script for 5.4.22 starting on line 61786, the script
searches for a libmysqlclient. It searches for libmysqlclient.* in
common library folders such as /usr, /usr/lib64 and so on.

For an application I need, I have a libmysqlclient.so.15 in that
directory as the application is linked against this version. There is NO
libmysqlclient.so though, so linking against it with "-lmysqlclient"
does not work.

My MySQL installation lives in /usr/lib64/mysql though which
mysql_config reports just fine and even the configure script finds
correctly when I move the library out of the way.

Actual result:
--------------
It should only search for either a libmysqlclient.so (or a
libmysqlclient.dylib depending on your environment) as only those
fulfill the linker requirement when -lmysqlclient is specified.
