9.1.15.2 Compiling Programs with libmysqld
To get a libmysqld library you should configure MySQL with the
--with-embedded-server option.
When you link your program with libmysqld, you must also include
the system-specific pthread libraries and some libraries that
the MySQL server uses. You can get the full list of libraries by executing
mysql_config --libmysqld-libs.
The correct flags for compiling and linking a threaded program must be used, even if you do not directly call any thread functions in your code.

You may need to include libwrap in order to compile a program. It wasn't present in the output of 'mysql_config --libmysqld-libs' on my system.
