I guess your libdir has no symlink.

Yes, it is 17.1 - why is this not a bug?

It is a bug, but it is a duplicate of another bug.

The almost-but-not-quite-autotools way of library discovery that the barnyard2 build system uses ignores custom LIBDIR (while configure accepts --libdir=... it does not use it) so filing a bug report for USE=odbc or USE=postgres would merely duplicate any effort to resolve the USE=mysql case you happened to find first.
