Could the checks become ABI-version aware, so that rebuilds and redistribution are kept to a minimum? Maybe Timo is already keeping API/ABI stability between minor updates, so the version checks should be against the first two version components only.
I keep APIs source compatible whenever possible, but ABIs haven't been very stable in v2.0.x. So I would have had to bump the ABI version for every release anyway. :)
But yeah, it would be nice at some point if this version check checked for actual ABI versions. The bad thing about that is that then I'd have to remember to update it whenever I actually change something..
