This question has occupied most of my time for two full days and it's a tremendous relief to know that I'm not alone in my struggles. As it turns out, php *was* trying to read a different .ini file when invoked from the command line than when invoked via browser. I say 'trying to' because I had changed the name of the alternate php.ini to 'deactivate' it. I assumed that since php still worked in the browser, I didn't need the other .ini. I reactivated the alternate php.ini, told it the path to mysql.so, and everything works as advertised. I know with this version of php, I should be using mysqli.so, so that's my next step.
