RMySQL binary for Windows 7

I and my co-worker just had a heck of a time installing RMySQL on Windows 7.  Finally worked it out.  He & I did the same steps (we think) as each other, but mine succeeded & his failed.  So I built a binary for him, and figured I might as well post it here too.

  [ binary package ]

I used MySQL 5.5, with R 2.13.1.  I think you still have to install MySQL separately in order for this package to work.
