The only viable approaches seem to be (in random order)

* fork libmysqlclient 
* convince the MySQL folks to revert their license change
* switch to postgres
* get upstream developers to add a clause to their license to permit
  linking to OpenSSL or move to GnuTLS (only an option if your
  application has an GPL compatible license)
