For other users who have or gets  same problem - I found an solution.

I downloaded:
t1lib-5.0.2-1.src.rpm for Fedora (couldn't find it for Redhat?) and 
rebuiled and installed it.

I downloaded the php source at rhn. Somehow I needed to make some 
changes to get it working (dont know if they was necessary).

Created /usr/local/lib/mysql and did the to he directory
Created some links:
ln -s /usr/include/mysql/ include
ln -s /usr/lib64/mysql/ lib

Changed the --with-mysql=(something i dont remember) to 
--with-mysql=shared,/usr/local/lib/mysql

Added --with-t1lib

and did rpmbuild -ba php.spec

Erase all php packages currenctly installed. And install you brand new 
php packages :)

Don't know why the changes of MySQL was necessary - but it wouldnt build 
the package without the changes :(
