The bug report says "mysql-dfsg-5.1" above? This is a version that
is only available in experimental. Please show 
        dpkg -l "*mysql*" | grep ^.i
to see what package versions you really have installed.

As far as I know that have been no changes to the locales. Can you show
        SHOW CREATE DATABASE xxx;
        SHOW CREATE TABLE xxx.yyy;
        SHOW VARIABLES LIKE "char%";
to see which charset is configured for your tables.

You might also want to lookup dev.mysql.com -> Manual -> History to see
if there have been any changes in between 5.0.23 and 5.0.24 that are
related.
