If adapting the tests to all versions, old and new, is not too
complicated, I'd prefer not to drop support for old versions.
It's also okay to make the new tests skipped unless v2.1 or newer is
installed, especially if the features you test are supported only with
those newer versions anyway.
Thanks.
