Description:
I'm using the official 4.1.7 linux RPMs:
mysql  Ver 14.7 Distrib 4.1.7, for pc-linux (i686)

Error Logs are filled with such entries
File '/usr/share/mysql/charsets/?.conf' not found (Errcode: 2)
Character set '#33' is not a compiled character set and is not specified in the '/usr/share/mysql/charsets/Index' file

Other users reported the same problem with 4.1.7
http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=312

How to repeat:
Start the MySQL server with default charset+collation to utf8

ie. inside my.cnf

[mysqld]
default-character-set=utf8
default-collation=utf8_general_ci
