Roy Rapoport's suggestion to ensure that the mysql was indeed compiled into snort (it wasn't) with ldd led me in the right direction. I copied the client libraries to the mysql/lib dir and did a make clean and then ./configure --with-mysql=<path> and a make, make install and now snort is connected to and logging to the mysql database. thanks to the others on the list that made suggestions, but Roy gets the kudos on this one.

If this build of snort was compiled by you, then re-run the the ./configure script using the '--with-mysql' switch. For non-standard installations of a database, the '--with-mysql=DIR' syntax may need to be used to specify the base directory of the DB install. See the database documentation for cursory details (doc/README.database). and the URL to the most recent database plugin documentation. Fatal Error, Quitting.. the mysql database is present, the contrib/create_mysql was run and the tables are present, i ran './configure --with-mysql' 'make' 'make install'. Are there known issues with snort-2.0.0 and mysql support??
