This may be more appropriate in a MySQL list, but I figured I would give
it a shot.

I am upgrading from MySQL 4.0 ro MySQL 5.0.51 and according to the
UPGRADE readme I need to export/import as binary.  Here is what I get
when I try to export binary:

mysqldump: Character set 'binary' is not a compiled character set and is
not specified in the '/usr/share/mysql/charsets/Index' file

There does not seem to be much in the way of how to add character sets
to MySQL.  Can anyone give me some direction here?
