I'm not sure what "older" versions means, specifically. Prepared
statements have been supported by MySQL since the production release of
4.1 in late 2004. Support for the 4.1 release ended 15 months ago. I
don't think it's appropriate to support anything older than that, and if
supporting 4.1 means a less secure or less maintainable driver, I don't
see why you'd go out of your way to support even that.
