So, they should commit to compatibility with apis vended, and if they do, I
think we should say 0.14 or later. This doesn’t mean that we won’t need fixes
from time to time or that they will always do this, but generally that is true.
If we (they) deviate from this,_then_ we document the exceptions. If release
after release goes out, with all newer versions not working, then the list of
known good versions is best; but, I’d say that something is terribly broken if
we had to do that.
It would be good to have a recommended version as well (similar for
cloog, gmp, mpc and mpfr). If you present me three versions which one
should I choose as a naive user? Are the versions in the
contrib/download_prerequisites script the recommended ones?
