I agree it is. Personally I just tried to look at support for either 2.4
or 2.6 at a time, and compare the old and new code paths, to wrap my
head around it.

BTW I didn't test the 2.4 support, I don't have a system with that
anymore.

That feels a bit excessive, but perhaps that is just because I'm very
accustomed to this style of conditional build. I can add the comments.

BR,
