apiversion (patchlevel.U):
- This is a number which identifies the lowest version of perl
- to have an API (for XS extensions) compatible with the present
- version. For example, for 5.005_01, the apiversion should be
- 5.005, since 5.005_01 should be binary compatible with 5.005.
- This should probably be incremented manually somehow, perhaps
- from patchlevel.h. For now, we'll guess maintenance subversions
- will retain binary compatibility.
