Hello.

In my opinion, libmysqlclient should be compatible with previous
servers. It supports the old authentication protocol and mysql client
program from the 5.0 distribution is able to work with old servers.
If you want you may look through change sets to find out if something
dramatically has changed in libmysqlcient.
