Hi,

for drawing a circle you would use a DrawFeature control with a 
RegularPolygon handler. See 
http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/regular-polygons.html for an example.

Labeling features is possible, but requires at least OpenLayers 2.8. See 
http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/vector-features-with-text.html 
for an example.

Upgrading to a more recent version of OpenLayers should not cause you 
any big trouble.

Regards,
Andreas.
