apologies if this is documented somewhere, but i have found much of the
material confusing.

I am attempting to build mysql-3.23.39 on a sun Solaris 2.6 box, with the
languages / utilities installed.

1. perl5.6.1
2. GNUmake
3. GNUm4
4. GNUtar
5. apache1.3.19
6. autoconf-2.13
7. automake-1.4
8. gawk-3.0.4
9. bison-1.28

through documentation i can see there are a number of ways to install the
mysql

1. compile the source (currently i am using this), but i have hit problems
that suggest i don't have the relevant C++ libraries for my gcc complier. 

        a. Installing the libstdc++-2.8.1.1 should rectify this? compiling
the source for this is a problem , producing unhelpful errors after a
lengthy configure process. if somebody can provide docs on how to install
these libraries successfully i would be keen to hear about, either as the
precompiled binaries or the source code.
        b. mysql documentation recommends that " In this case, you can
     remove the code in `configure' that tests for the C++ compiler and
     then run `./configure' with the `--without-server' option" - can
anybody throw light on what the without server option is about?

2. use binaries (not used yet).
