It appears that the requirement #2 on the MySQL
license page
(http://www.mysql.com/company/legal/licensing/commercial-license.html)
is not consistent with the GPL, which does not impose
restrictions on non-linked programs.  However use of
the MySQL client JDBC or ODBC driver would appear to
require either GPL'ing your code or your customers
buying the commercial license, so in essence it is the
same.  Comments?  Would use of a JDBC type-3
intermediate server be restricted as well, if only the
intermediate server was GPL'ed?
