You can install libmysqlclient15 and libmysqlcleint15-dev and build programs
against it. Be careful though that you will get very bad segfaults if
you try e.g. linking libnss-mysql againt libmysqlclient14 and libpam-mysql
against libmysqlclient15 and have symbols from both in your binary.
Same goes for apache's auth-mysql and php-mysql... as long as they are 
kept separated you can choose your libmysqlclient version as you like.

(this is why the release managers choosed one library version as 
"default" for Sarge)
