I do most of my validation with version 12.9.  While it might be
tempting to change to the new APIs and increase the minimum supported
version to 13.3, I would encourage you to be careful to not force
everybody to update to the latest version and consider a path that
doesn't cause breakage (we typically do this with #defines).
