We'd the same concern with Debian: Mysql 4 + php4 vs Mysql5 + PHP5...
We opted for Vservers which allowed us to use the native packages (so
no compilation ;-)). We installed our machines like this:
        - On the host latest version of distribution (Etch for us). The
machine had only the requiered packages.
        - On the virtual servers an installation on the native distribution
(sarge for us) + myqsql, php and apache.

For mysql packages have look at
http://rpmseek.com/rpm-pl/mysql.html?hl=com&cs=mysql%3APN%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0%3A0&qArStr=0&qRtStr=0&qDnStr=100

There some source packages too. So if you don't want to use the
Vservers, you tried to compile those packages directly...

Hope this helps,
