I'm sitting here waiting on MySQL 4.1 to recompile. It doesn't want to. I've resorted to modifying the ports Makefile to use the --with-isam option and recompile it that way. We'll see if that works.

When I tried before from the work directory of the port, it kept failing at one spot that didn't seem to have anything to do directly with the ISAM option. Something about gen_lex_hash not being found, even though it was there, ready to be compiled. I just don't feel like doing that kind of troubleshooting right now.

It looks like it may be working, but it's still compiling at this point.

Update: Half an hour later, we have a working MySQL.
