Finally - success. There were two problems. The first was a brain fart on my part. I wasn't calling the Ant task that checked if the mysql-connector was installed. Once called, the connector was properly installed to server/default/lib, which is the correct location (at least it works for my situation).
The second problem is that the connector must be installed before JBOSS is started. It can't be hot deployed. So after copying in the connector I restarted JBOSS. Then I deployed my ear file. And it worked. Well, at least there are no errors on deployment. So, now, all the config stuff is in place. Enough so that I can start looking at writing meaningful server code once again. I still need to write a sample client to make sure I can get to the initial web services interface. That would be the last infrastructure check, I think. After that it's back to server meat and new features, like implementing a cron-like system using the Timer Service.
