Please forgive my late entry into this. I don't use Mandrake, but in 
Debian, libdvdread3 and libdevread3-dev are separate packages (a common 
practice in general with libraries), and the -dev package is needed to 
provide the appropriate header files for compilation. Might the same be 
true of libdvdread2 in Mandrake? Just a guess, mind you.

If you did install the -dev package too, you might want to check if you are 
running into a difference between libdvdread3 and libdvdread2. In 
libdvdread3, the "undefined reference" you are seeing from make is defined 
in (on my system)

         /usr/include/dvdread/dvd_reader.h
