It's my best guess that D3 will likely support D2 way of doing things rather
than D1, if at all.  If I'm wrong I'll fix my version statement to support
whatever D3 requires.  But if I'm right I won't be needing to change anything.

Note that D version is only an example.  This sort of version compatibility is
required when you need to support multiple versions of a library or a host
application.  If I write a plug-in for 3dsmax that must support versions 8, 9,
2008, 2009 and as many future versions as possible, and I know that a
particular API is only available from 9 onwards, I put its use under
version(max,9) and hope that 2010 will support it as well.
