Otoh, python 2.5 has been out for a while (and is in fact only downloadable as a source-only release these days). To be exact, it was released on September 19, 2006.
As a trivia: most of our Perl code is still 5.6 compatible. That'd be like supporting Python 1.6 (or actually, 1.5.2, 1.6 came out half a year after Perl 5.6). Anyway, dying in the program as you suggest seems like a better idea.
