So how about this:

Update the version to 2.0.4 to avoid the
vulnerability.

Modify Makefile to require PHP4:

DEFAULT_PHP_VER=4
WANT_PHP_WEB=   yes
IGNORE_WITH_PHP=5

Add to the files/pkg-message.in to inform the user
that they must have a remote or jailed mysql 3.23 or
make the published patches.
