Hi Andrew

the Makefile is supposed to check for correct library versions:
look out for the EXT_PKG_VERSIONS variable.

the vala version is checked as well as defined in
MIN_VALAC_VERSION := 0.11.7
and MAX_VALAC_VERSION if defined (which is not currently the case, but
used to be in the 0.8 days which didn't compile with valac 0.11+)

shotwell 0.9.3 is definitely supposed to compile with vala 0.12
