Summary:
This version can be more easily maintained as a patch set and heavily relies on actual
MySQL-python code, rather than forking the codebase.

This is a new package that implements MySQLdb-like DBAPI 2.0. The main differences are:
0/ a different package name, allowing peaceful co-existence alongside MySQLdb
1/ linking only against libmysqld, the embedded MySQL database library
2/ thread-safety (the thread safety changes should probably be back-ported)
incrementing version to 1.2.5
