No, it says that the *binary* RPMs up there are built against 4.1.  You 
can use whatever version of MySQL you like when building from source.

No, it's looking for any libmysqlclient that the linker can find; it 
doesn't specify a version.  If your link system isn't set up correctly, 
so that the linker can't find the 5.0 library, it'll fail just as described.
