I had a similar problem until I came across this page: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20030910180006632 which includes the following parameters:
perl Makefile.PL --cflags=-I/usr/local/mysql/include/ --libs="-L/usr/local/mysql/lib -lmysqlclient -lz"

I cannot get DBD::Mysql to install.
I can connect to test just fine with the passwords I am supplying to Makefile.pl when I use those on the command line.
When I try to make test I get this:
t/10dsnlist........DBI connect('test:localhost','root',...) failed: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES) at t/10dsnlist.t line 45
Cannot connect: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES)
Either your server is not up and running or you have no
permissions for acessing the DSN DBI:mysql:test:localhost.
This test requires a running server and write permissions.
Please make sure your server is running and you have
permissions, then retry.
