Looks like MySQL 5.0.51b to me ... which is the current GA (Generally 
Available) release

http://dev.mysql,com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html

I'm sure than when version 5.1 emerges from being a "Release 
Candidate" to being the GA release, then the MySQL5 port will be 
updated to use this source instead.
