There is not and should not be any explicit dependency on the compat package anywhere, only implicit soname dopendencies. Therefore, the exact name or version of the compat package is completely immaterial. As long as there is a package in the yum's universe that has appropriate implicit provide tags for the wanted sonames, yum will know what to do. In the long run these compat packages should come from a separate SRPM and be on their own release cycle, ie. no cycle at all, since they contain the code that does not change anymore. In the short term, just use the one from 4.1.x, the one from 4.2.x would have been identical modulo the version.
