	The problem was that I was missing part of mysql.  Initially 
	I thought v323 was still the default (( for phpBB )); when I
	looked at the dependencies I found that v40 is now required.
	--Long story short, after rbuilding/reinstalling, mysql is
	happy.

	(now to upgrade to phpbb-2.0.6......)

	thanks,
