This more straight ahead version also works for Oracle:

UPDATE MyTable t1
   SET Foo = 1
 WHERE Bar = 99
   AND NOT EXISTS
       (
         SELECT *
           FROM MyOtherTable t2
          WHERE t2.SomeColumn   = t1.SomeColumn
            AND t2.SomeOtherColumn = t1.SomeOtherColumn
            AND t2.YetAnotherColumn   = 42
       )

Still no ideas for MySQL.
