In general, you should do it the opposite way. Compile with the lowest 
supported
library version, and it will work with an higher one. Going backwards is 
unlikely
to be supported by the libraries internals.
Note however, that ssh doesn't cry when "going backwards" within the patch
series (just like going forward won't generate such notice).
