I get various errors from my php based applications and php building that all refer to the need to upgrade my mysqlclient.

Did you try "old-passwords" in /etc/my.cnf ?
Old clients use an old authentication protocol, which is not the default on modern mysql servers. For compatibility, "old-passwords" uses the old algorithm.

I have not found instructions on where to get the client software to build or upgrade a client.

For php:
./configure <options> --with-mysql=/path/to/newmysql/
