Unless you plan to process your documents with XML tools >(and then have the joy of trying to get Appendix C compatible >output), I'd stick to 4.01. For me, who routinely generates markup programmatically, one of the most significant advantages of using XHTML is the rigorousness of the automated validators which point out missing close-tags, etc. In my work, malformed markup indicates bugs in the markup-generating logic. I rely on the W3C validator as my proofreading buddy. I cannot get that same rigor from the validation of HTML in which, for example, element closures are often optional.
