Eric, I'm not sure if this answers your question, but I was doing some similar research to set up a parameter for jetspeed-1, which also uses OJB. When I upgraded from MySQL version 4 to version 5, I discovered that I had to set up a parameter to handle timestamps equal to zero, and I was looking for a bit for the right place to put this parameter. The parameter was "zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull". In the end, I discovered that the right place to put it at the end of the dbalias as shown below:
<jdbc-connection-descriptor jcd-alias="essential" default-connection="yes" platform="MySQL" jdbc-level="3.0" driver="org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver" protocol="jdbc" subprotocol="mysql" dbalias="//localhost/essential?zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull" username="xxxxxx" password="yyyyy" > I hope this helps.

What are the options for setting this in OJB's repository_database.xml or other properties file?
