I have spent most of the day optimizing a Mysql 5.0.x database – now I need to get the changes on to the production server
How do I make a backup of table’s index settings and then restore them on the production database server?

You can do a mysqldump --no-data on both databases and diff them by hand. Alternatively, you could use something like SQL Fairy, which can diff two databases and output the SQL required to change one database's schema to match the other. I believe it can either work directly with the databases, or with the SQL generated with mysqldump --no-data.
