Description:
Download the mysql-noinstall-5.1.17-beta-win32.zip package and install it.
Create a VS 2005 project 32-win console client application and compile
against the mysqlclient.lib.  You will get several linkage errors like:

mysqlclient.lib(client.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _yaSSL_get_peer_certificate
mysqlclient.lib(viossl.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _yaSSL_get_peer_certificate

Pushed into 5.1.20-beta

This was corrected in 5.0.48 and 5.1.22
[8 Jan 2008 17:32] Paul DuBois 
Noted in 5.0.48, 5.1.22 changelogs.

On Windows, symbols for yaSSL and taocrypt were missing from
mysqlclient.lib, resulting in unresolved symbol errors for clients
linked against that library.
