Very good question!  Another problem with feature creep.  If mysql 4.x
was installed from source dovecot would not install unless mysql 3.23.x
was installed via rpm.  But if mysql 4.x was installed via rpm I would
expect dovecot to accept mysql 3.23.x and anything above that.  If it is
written to look for 3.23.x specifically then you would have to strip
dovecot off and install dovecot from source.
