I don't have any good ideas about discerning precisely what version of
MySQL was running, though.


The error log will have the version information. Each successful startup includes something similar to

100910  7:50:30 [Note] mysqld: ready for connections.
Version: '5.1.48-enterprise-gpl-advanced' socket: '' port: 3306 MySQL Enterprise Server - Advanced Edition (GPL)
