Browse a mirror:
http://mirror.wiredtree.com/centos/5/os/x86_64/CentOS/db4-4.3.29-10.el5_5.2.x86_64.rpm
It's very rare that point release update/upgrades within a major
version will b0rk anything.
That's the point of running an enterprise OS, there shouldn't be any
major changes within a release.
Testing in a VM like Fabien mentioned is also a pretty good idea.
