I think it should wait for after 4.0.4 because I understand this is a
non-tested MySQL patch? Also it would mean that our MySQL extension update
would also need a bit of time to stabilize (even though it probably would
not be a big patch).
I think it would be good to get 4.0.4 out the door by next week. The reason
why it has been taking so long because there were quite a few open issues
raised (most of them have been fixed by now).
Are the build problems with the new MySQL client all solved now? I'm also
cc'ing the PHP QA guys who might have a better idea of the issues which
were raised.

Thanks!
Andi
