Here's the result of trying to build myodbc 5.1.10 against version 5.5.20-1
of mysql-5.5, taken from the mysql team's svn repo:

libtool: link: gcc -O3 -DDBUG_OFF -I/usr/include/mysql -DBIG_JOINS=1 
-fno-strict-aliasing -g -g -O2 -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 
-Wformat -Wformat-security -Werror=format-security -Wl,-z -Wl,relro -o 
.libs/my_basics my_basics.o  ../driver/.libs/libmyodbc5.so 
-L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -lmysqlclient_r -lpthread -lm -lrt -ldl -lz 
-L/usr/lib -lodbcinst
../driver/.libs/libmyodbc5.so: undefined reference to `dynstr_append_mem'
../driver/.libs/libmyodbc5.so: undefined reference to `dynstr_append'
../driver/.libs/libmyodbc5.so: undefined reference to `dynstr_free'
../driver/.libs/libmyodbc5.so: undefined reference to `dynstr_realloc'
../driver/.libs/libmyodbc5.so: undefined reference to `strfill'
../driver/.libs/libmyodbc5.so: undefined reference to `init_dynamic_string'
../driver/.libs/libmyodbc5.so: undefined reference to `dynstr_append_os_quoted'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [my_basics] Error 1

So I would not say this has fixed the problems of compatibility with mysql
5.5 given that the test suite won't compile.

(Patches welcome.)
