Some chip vendors only support that version, so I am assuming that that 
was the reason for the question.
It is a classic case of what happens when people do ports that are not 
merged.  They say it is good enough as is and then never move forward or 
fix bugs.
The good news I guess is that we have the source, so we could forward 
port it if we were really motivated.
