Oh yeah. I had that also. RedHat puts stuff in weird places, and PHP and MySQL put stuff in normal places, and it breaks. You'll need to copy your libmysqlclient.so from where-ever it is to where-ever RedHat wants it. Actually, you need to track down the symbolic links to whatever is the *real* file and copy that, or make yet another symbolic link to it. I'm not sure how feasible it is to make PHP configure predict where RedHat is going to expect things to go -- I suspect RedHat keeps changing it around in response to complaints, although their web-site claims they are following a "standard"... At any rate, it's been a long-standing and/or recurrent problem, and if the installer can't figure out RedHat's plot, the only option is to document the hell out of it.
