I'm not sure I follow you. MySQL doesn't have to directly integrate with
PHP, the information is transferred over a network connection. I.e. you
can use the RedHat version of Apache and PHP and the MySQL that you
compiled yourself together. That's not a promise - it'll probably work.

RedHat places the MySQL modules for PHP in a separate RPM file:
php-mysql-4.0.6-7.i386.rpm in 7.2.

rpm -Uvh php-mysql-*.rpm

HTH,
