I thought about that.  The docs were pointing to an FAQ number that
doesn't exit anymore, and there is text indicating sometimes the shared
compile isn't needed, so I didn't want to hard-code a version number in
case it wasn't significant aoyway.  And if I say newer, it will be
not-newer in a few years. :-)

I know Python 2.3 has the flag.  I think that is the first release that
has it, but I am not sure.
