I think there is some confusion here. I'm guessing you are using mysql- python v1.2.1 since a 1.x mysql version would probably date back to the mid to late 90s. Ask the admin if it is possible to upgrade mysql- python for which you do not need to upgrade MySQL itself or even take down the database. It is also possible to build mysql-python against the newer MySQL (there's probably a special option on mysql-python's setup.py) yourself. As long as the newer version is in your PYTHONPATH Django will pick it up.
