Is it possible to use sqlobject to connect to a mysql database from iron python? If so, how? What must I install?

I have sqlobject installed for cpython and it works fine, but if I use that same package in ironpython I get

"ImportError: No module named _mysql".

I understand this to mean that ironpython cannot load the C-based .dlls necessary to access the mysql API. What's the workaround, or is there one?
