php emerge problem

[zoomtard]

I ran a -u world and everything except php 4.2.2 compiled/installed. I have the newest version of portage (2.0.2 and gcc 2.95.3. Here is the error I get during a compile attempt:

In file included from libmysql.c:12:

!!! emerge aborting on /usr/portage/dev-php/php/php-4.2.2-r1.ebuild.

I tried stopping the mysql service and re-compiling, only to encounter the same error.
