But that requires users with the time and willingness to build for those 
distributions, and ideally test them... 

And sometimes it's not easy to get the newest versions to build cleanly with 
all features when the target distribution doesn't have the correct version of 
a dependency installed (you won't get distributions to update to a new library 
version just for one program, if that means other things could break).
