So you wouldn't have to worry about building php-mysql separately, you'd just have to rebuild the php source RPM. -chris

The source package creates the main binary and several subpackages. This is done to reduce "coupling", so that if you don't have mysql installed, you don't have to install the mysql component of php. But it still gets built from the source package. Look in the spec file to see all the subpackages that get generated. While end users are not required to have all dependent packages installed, packagers are, in order to build all the subpackages.
