There seem to have been mountains of bug fixes throughout 5.0.x
I've got a bug in the questionbank which is clearly caused by a PHP bug (to do with references). The problem is present certainly in 5.0.5 and is fixed by 5.1.0. What I would *really* like is for 5.1.0 to be the minimum recommended version

I have tried an install on Ubuntu Breeze with 5.0.x and was soon forced to downgrade to 4.x too 
Yes, apache kept hanging when I tried to run the quiz module with PHP 5.0.4. When I told Martin about this he said he had heard of other problems due to bugs in PHP 5.0.4 and that it would therefore not be supported by Moodle.
I would upgrade to version 5.1.4 if you can. I know that 5.0.4 had some issues with Wordpress and probably some other applications. I don't run version 5 with Moodle yet, but it works well for my Drupal stuff.
Yes, I think 5.1 or later is fair (for PHP5).
In PHP4, Moodle 1.6 requires 4.1.12 or later for latin languages, and 4.1.16 and later for anything else.

Cool - I have amended the requirements in the docs wiki.
Thanks

Is it PHP 4.1.16 that is required for running Moodle with non-Latin script or is it MySQL 4.1.16 that is required?
