If you really need MySQL 4.1 then it is certainly best to run a plain
OpenPKG 2.2 instance but the "mysql41" package from CURRENT (which is at
4.1.7 instead of 4.1.5). This way you have both the stability of OpenPKG
2.2 plus the latest version of MySQL 4.1. Running the whole OpenPKG
instance from CURRENT is not recommended in general and especially not
for production use.
