I didn't.  The warnings were moved to configure.in.bot:
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/koffice/kexi/kexidb/drivers/configure.in.bot?rev=395097&r1=394950&r2=395098

This means that they should appear at the end of the configure output, instead 
of being lost in the clutter of configure output.

That shouldn't be the case.

Ah, the mysql warnings, that's different to the URL you gave above.  It seems 
that configure.in.bot doesn't show a message for that.  (Although it should 
say further up in the configure output?).
