Yes, that. I think we haven't fully used that well historically since I
can only ever recall *kaboom* when using too old of a bitbake rather
than a nice sane error message. Looking at
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Releases and then some quick git
history, we also must have had that mechanism available when I last ran
into something like that even for the fairly ancient jumping around I've
had to do a time or three.
In fact, can we make BB_MIN_VERSION match the table found there? It
doesn't look like we have resources / time to test things on both
current and min versions, so we should I think have the min match what
we say should be used.
