Neither.  It's eventually going to link the final php binary with
the mysql shared libraries (probably libmysqlclient).
I'm not too familiar with PHP, so I don't know if '--with-mysql=' wants
the location of the MySQL root directory (typically /usr/local/mysql for
source installations) or the directory that contains the libraries (like
above, but /usr/local/mysql/lib).  

Check to see if /usr/local/mysql exists first.
Better yet, try this:
  find /usr -name libmysqlclient*

Hopefully, it will show you the location of one (or more) MySQL client
libraries.
Start there.
