It's a perl program running on Debian stable. Apparently it fails to communicate properly with mysql 5, but works fine with mysql 4. I assume the Debian dbd-mysql package to be compatible with the Debian mysql 5 server, so of course it could be Debian fault, or some error in the program. But I prefer to unjustly incriminate mysql because postgres is so much better anyway :)
