Is there a reason not to use the official rpms from mysql.com?

One thing to remember... you said you completely uninstalled mysql-3.23...

When you did that, didn't you get complaints about dependencies from
libmysqlclient.so.10? This library file is used by some other
applications, even if you don't use mysql.

If you are going to install 4.1.10, you might also look at installing
the RPM for mysql-shared-compat-4.1.10 which puts the
libmysqlclient.so.10, as well as libmysqlclient.so.14 files in your
system so that other applications that needed the older version will
still have access.
