Compiling w/ DB support

[Joe Rhett]

Jamie, are you sure you're up to this?  I don't mean to be rude, but it's
pretty clear you don't get it.

1. You said you already have MySQL installed on your system.  And in
production, right?   So you already have the binaries.

2. So if you already have mysql installed on your system, just compile
Nagios pointing to the installation directories for mysql.
