State-Changed-Why: 
The problem is that the upstream changes seriously break backwards
compatibility.  My understanding is that for now we are staying with
the existing version so as not to create a problem for our users, via
POLA.  I don't know if this decision will be revisited for 10.0.

In any case, 8.3 is already released, so the first part of this PR
is moot.
