New Glossword not support older version of MySQL?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I've tried to install Glossword 1.8.7 or 1.8.8 on MySQL 4.0.x, 
However there is only 'MySQL 4.1.x, 5.0' database version can be selected.
please see attahed image.

And if I ignore selecting the database version (=left it as default) and 
proceed, the below errors show up!!

----
Database error: CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS gw_abbr ( id_abbr tinyint(3) 
unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, is_active tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL 
DEFAULT '1', id_dict tinyint(3) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', id_group 
tinyint(3) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '1', PRIMARY KEY (id_abbr) ) 
ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8
MySQL Error: 1064 (You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual 
that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use 
near 'DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8' at line 7)
Session halted.

I see. Unfortunately, MySQL 4.0.x is no longer supported. Your MySQL version 
has been
released two years ago 
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/news-4-0-27.html) and
it is not supported even by the developers of MySQL.

There are so many hosting companies with MySQL 5.0.x and even 5.1.x around.

"Please consider upgrading to a recent version (MySQL 5.0 or 5.1)"
