If you compile it on a machine that has only mysql-5.x and mysql-devel-5.x on it, it should then link against the proper files. Hopefully you are making RPMS and not doing installs from source. I would also try to stay with the CentOS RPMS (in CentOS-4 we have php-4.3.9) as you know those will be supported and get security updates until 2012 ... BUT php-4 will most likely not last that long from php.net. You should (though I have not tried it) be able to compile the php-4.3.9 SRPMS from CentOS-4 on CentOS-3. You might also get the mysql SRPMS for MySQL from the CentOS-4 CentOSPlus repo and recompile on CentOS-3. If I was going to do mysql-5 and php-4 on CentOS-3, that is what I would do ... though I would most likely do it on CentOS-4 instead and get a newer version of apache too.
