Linking with a GPL library causes the issue
Might an upcoming release be more friendly? MySQL includes the
right to choose v2 or newer:

modify
* it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as

No
It's the terms of the GPL license where if you link to GPL'd code
your code has to be GPL'd
MySQL does offer a different license that REAL could incorporate and
cover this for all of us but if that meant the price of RB went up
I'd say to hell with it as I don't use mySQL anyways.
PostgreSQL license says you can use it without fee, written consent etc.
