It is strange that you get this error since ODB tries to detect whether
this symbol is visible. Perhaps you built libodb-mysql and linking your
application using different libmysqlclient libraries? Check the config.h
file in libodb-mysql/odb/mysql/details/ for LIBODB_MYSQL_THR_KEY_VISIBLE.
If it is defined, then the link test (see config.log for the command line)
somehow manages to "see" this symbol while your command line does not.
