Hi together!
I'm using MySQL 5.1 without problems on my Linux machine.

The problem is not mysqlvlib as also mysqllib is checked for. The problem is
the version string returned by the API. This is checked for in
fcl-db/src/sqldb/mysql/mysqlconn.inc/TConnectionName.DoInternalConnect.
Until 5 months ago this only checked for '5.0', but since then (thanks to
Joost) it also checks for '5.1'. But I don't think that this is even part of
the 2.4.0 release...
