Well, or we could fix the problems that make it hard to build on newer and
run on older. This isn't rocket science, nor is it a problem that affects
Windows developers.
In other words this isn't some fundamental unchangeable thing, it's just a
side effect of eg, not using versioned headers, library instability
(fortunately not affecting the GTK/GNOME stack) etc etc.
