Look at /usr/ports/databases/mysql40-server/distinfo. This file says
what source tarball the port uses. Mine says 4.0.20. You can try
fetching a newer version of the ports tree. It's available from
FreeBSD-ftp-mirrors.
Or you can look at one of the ftp-mirrors for a binary package.

kind regards,
Benjamin
