You can't have progress that way. To be fair, it *is* a major version
number change, and if you don't test your apps across major version
changes of *anything* you don't need to be in this business. No
offense ;-)
Anyhow, Bruce posted a patch to the 7.3 line to allow this behavior
back, as it was necessary for some apps. However, don't count on it
for 7.4...
