Re: building R3.13 extensions with R3.14.5

[Ralph Lange <Ralph.Lange@bessy.de>]

Note that there's also a second variable called

   COMPAT_313

that can be set to YES to allow 3.13 IOC applications to be built.

Btw: All of this is explicitly covered in the 3.14.5 Release Notes, but
I know that such information always has a strong tendency to be in the
one place that you don't look for it.

Cheers,
Ralph
