I also disagree but due different reasons. I believe we ought to drop
the old version except if there're a real reason to keep it around.
For udev 124 I think there's no reason for it to be kept (maybe I'm
missing something here).

Obviously this ought to be done in dev, not stable, but it can make
our life easier and avoid us to need to care about so many recipes.
The final result is that old versions usually has ugly and unknown
bugs that noone cares about.
