I think it would be much safer to just version everything.
Just remember Assistant in Qt 4, where early 4.x releases shipped an
Assistant that was essentially compatible with the Qt 3 version, but it was
later renamed to assistant_adp (and later dropped from the Qt distribution
and shipped as an unmaintained separate legacy tarball) and a new
incompatible Assistant (the QCH one) was introduced.
