Restoring mysql 3.23.54a-0.woody backups to 4.0.24-10 (sarge)

[Tom <tom.lobato@terra.com.br>]

	Hello!


	I have a old woody mysql 3.23.54a DB and have to transfer all 
databases and privilegies tables to a new mysql installation, version 
4.0.24-10, running on debian sarge.
	Well, I ran

		mysqldump -u root -p --opt -A > mysql_backup.sql

	to create it, and when I tried to restore on the new system (mysql 
4.0.24-10 on sarge), I got 'syntax errors' from 'mysql_backup.sql' 
file =(

	Some hint?


	PS: I searched on google, debian maillist and mysql doc with no 
results.


	Thank you
	Tom
