It seems to be somewhat of a burden to carry a version-specific note
indefinitely... more clutter than helpful. So I'd vote for just changing
the 9.0 docs.

Or, we could add the 9.0-specific note to 9.0 and 9.1 docs, but leave it
out of 'master'. That way it sticks around for a while but we don't have
to remember to remove it later.
