  We can't do this until 3.2.0 is in common use.  For now I think it would be 
ideal to use the preprocessor to enable one or the other conditionally based 
on if the user is on 3.1 or HEAD.

  Thanks for doing this work!  Also thanks for merging with the patch from 
Dirk.

   Dirk: sorry, I was away at OLS and had no time to review the patch.  The 
list is the best place for this stuff though.

   Regarding the ZVBI compile problems, whichever is the most recent has to be 
the one we support.  Anything older, you can make conditional compile if you 
like, but that's a lot of work.  Hopefully they will stabilize their 
development soon.  We should try to put in an autoconf check for the libzvbi 
version number too I think.
