I just did this a couple of weeks ago myself, with your same situation (where 
3.23 was installed along with the usual server stuff w/ FC2).

The online doc at www.mysql.com (select Developer Zone, then Documentation) 
has a section that describes where all of the files are for various types of 
installations. 

2.1.5 Installation layouts

I used these tables to find all the old mysql stuff and just deleted them all. 
Then I installed 4 via RPMs and it's been working like a champ since.

I wrote up my experiences here:

Feedback on the whitepaper would be appreciated if it works for you (or 
doesn't.)
