Ran into this during a migration from 2.1.6 to 4.1.2. Had to do this in several steps, 2.1.6 => 2.2.9 => 3.4.8 => 4.1.2.

During 2.2.9 to 3.4.8, the upgrader refused to continue because it couldn't find the civicrm_preferences.domain_id column.

Adding the column to the DB causes the upgrader to fail, so I patched CRM/Core/BAO/Preferences.php to work around it. (We're only using 3.4.8 as an upgrade step anyway.)

Patch for 3.4.8 is here: https://gist.github.com/2606503
