I removed the following: 

/Library/Perl
/usr/local/mysql*
/Library/Receipts - everything *mysql*
/private/var/db/receipts - everything *mysql*

[download]
Then I reinstalled mysql version 5.0, architecture x86 --- ie, 32-bit version, and all my Perl modules including DBD. No problem this time. Perhaps I could have gotten away with removing less stuff, I don't know.

The following combination seems to be working for me: OSX 10.6.1, perl 5.10, 32-bit mysql version 5.0.51, manually installed DBI and DBD::mysql. Well, it is working at the moment, at least. Interestingly, the 64-bit preferences pane (swoon.net) seems to work okay with 32-bit mysql.

I should say that I tried building DBD with the 64-bit versions of mysql 5.0, 5.1, and 5.4, and they all had problems (the problem in the original post). I didn't try with the 32-bit versions of 5.1 or 5.4. Since things seem to be working now---32-bit version of 5.0---I am not messing with it any more. Ever.
