Yes I did and it put the modules in /usr/local/lib/include/python2.1

so I changed setup.py to

if sys.platform == "linux2": # Red Hat
     include_dirs = 
['/usr/include/mysql','/opt/Python-2.1.1/Include','/usr/local
/include/python2.1']

And then ran
../bin/python setup.py build
(from my Mysql-python directory underneath the zope home directory - and it 
ran !!!

so I then ran

../bin/python setup.py install

and that ran

so I ran ./stop and ./start in my zope home directory

and ZMySQLDA was installed and running.

Got there in the end. Thanks for your help

Regards

Richard
