Fix for 4.0.27 security issue?

So this mysql_real_escape (http://issues.rpath.com/browse/RPL-396)
problem has been already fixed in 5 and 4.1
(http://lists.mysql.com/announce), but nothing for 4.0.27. Anyone know
if 4.0 will be fixed too soon?

Did you try asking the MySQL developers? AFAIK only us users hang out on these
newsgroups. This type of thing should be handled through MySQL support.

You would be better off moving to 4.1

Moves within the same base are usually fairly safe. Just figure out and
save your custom INI settings and anything else you may have customized.
Backup everything. 4.0 is not actively supported as far as I can tell, but
4.1 seems to be.
