We're trying to upgrade from 4.1.20 to 5.0.54. The problem is running
mysql_upgrade. It's turning out to be that about 70% of our tables
(over 800GB) are being needing repair.

The question is, will it be possible to "get by" without upgrading?
Eventually we'll get to it, but will data be served from these tables
if we don't? A lot of our tables DO have TEXT indexes, which
apparently have gone under some padding related incompatible changes,
what does this really mean, these tables can't be read or they will be
inefficient?

Thanks,
Hayden.

P.S. - I know we _should_ use mysql_upgrade, it's a matter of time
right now, we will obviously get to it.
