I set the username to root. That should be enough, I assume.
I didn't do the grant stuff.
Only that I have used PHP to test mysql installation, the PHP page also create a test database and
test it. Not sure if that would create a problem.

The web page Mark pointed out has this

And you can watch the output when make is run.It tells you what these parameters are for testing.
That looks right. Did you log into MySQL first, and grant write access to "test" for "username"? Along the lines of:
grant all privileges on test.* to root identified by 'password';

So I guess my question, after following this, is to NOT follow the directions in the link I posted, but simply make the change in the .conf first, then download the source from CPAN, then install it.
Is that the correct order of things?
I'm pretty much ready to do this, as I have MySQL installed and working (with PHP). I just need to get the Perl access side of things going.
Thanks,
