The only thing wrong with 5.3 is the gvinum doesn't work yet.  It doesn't
seem like you'll be using gvinum.

If you install 4.10, you'll want to upgrade at some point in the future
when 4.X isn't supported any more.

Unless you know factually that you won't be keeping this server around
very long (i.e., less than a year).  If that's the case, use 4.10 as
it's a more tested codebase.  I still think that's wrong, as servers
always seem to stay around longer than you plan.
