MySQL-4.1, prior to 4.1.9 (and 5.0.3), returns the collation instead
of the character set; that's what you're seeing here. What client
version are you running? I assume you have at least
MySQL-python-1.2.0; older versions probably won't work with MySQL-4.1
(some 1.1 versions will, but 1.0 will not).
