I would tend to agree with you, FWIW.  I don't use mysql myself, so I
can't experiment, but have you tried

 * Setting $dbh->trace(n) with n>0 right after you connect?

 * Explicitly qualifying $dbh with the package, ie
   s/$dbh/$LXR::Index::Mysql::dbh/ ?

 * A different version of perl?

Not that I would know what was wrong given results of those tests, but
maybe they can help shed light on the problem?
