Kaz, do you have any comments on this version requirement?  Unless you 
have any problems with it, I think we have assent from maintainers for all 
libc architectures with listed maintainers (and implicit assent for x86_64 
since that already requires 2.20 in practice) and so I think we're ready 
for me to commit this change.
