[Serusers] compilng Mysql.so

[Damian Bundred]

hi,
i've managed to get the individual components of mysql to compile, but i 
still get this error

make[1]: Entering directory `/root/ser-0.9.0/modules/mysql'
gcc -shared  -Wl,-O2 -Wl,-E -pg  db_con.o db_mod.o dbase.o my_con.o my_id.o

make[1]: *** [mysql.so] Error 1

I havent used makefiles that much before, and could really use some help.
Many thanks
Damian.
