Currently the min mysql version we require is 5.0.2. In order to fix T6715 [2], I'd like to bump it to 5.0.3. This would allow us to have varchar fields larger than 255. Anyone have any objections?

5.0.3 was released in march 2005 (8 years ago!), so this is hardly bleeding edge. As far as I can tell, Wikiapiry says this would affect no wikis [1]
