> Meh, alright, I wasn't aware it would break binary compatibility.
It breaks compatibility on a functional level - if an application is using

> So, would the solution be to effectively move this check directly into
StyledEdit code, in that case?
Yes, indeed, I'm afraid that would be the solution.
