The build of MySQLdb is not finding the MySQL client database libraries.  
You need to install them first and, for the python you are using, you 
need a version that includes 32-bit.  The easiest options are to 
download them from mysql.com or, if you are comfortable with MacPorts, I 
would recommend installing them from there.

    sudo port install mysql5

In fact, with MacPorts you can install a complete Python 2.6.4, MySQLdb, 
and MySQL libraries with just one command.  With the MacPorts base 
installed, this should do it:

    sudo port install py26-mysql

You might need to tweak the variants of some of the packages if you want 
32-bit only, etc, depending on what version of OS X you're running on.
