FWIIW, you can "pin" versions using /etc/apt/preferences so you could pin MySQL to 4.* with a more advanced Debian system. You can also downgrade a MySQL 5.* installation to 4.*, but that might be tough because of dependencies... it is probably better to install Debian testing/Etch without MySQL, pin MySQL to 4.*, and then install MySQL (which will install 4.x since it is pinned).
Sure. However the dependencies on libmysqlclient varies, and DBD::MySQL and other already-packaged modules which depend on libmysqlclient might need to be purged and compiled using dh-make-perl or any other helper, or just installed manually. I planned to recompile Sarge's source package under Etch; I guess that's the nicest way. Of course it's possible to have Koha in Etch (I had it, just decided to fallback to Sarge) it's just quite more complicate to achieve, a little bit unmanageable and currently highly complex to do by means of an official Debian package.
