Let me rephrase:

Could you please try to explain what is it that you don't like in this 
solution, and why?

Is the general idea of forcing cpp to include the *correct* version.h
acceptable?  If not, why not?  If it *is* acceptable, what are the
disadvantages that you don't like in how I suggested to implement that? 
Perhaps we could find a way to remove these disadvantages or work around
them? 

Let us work together to solve this problem in a way that makes everybody 
happy.  New versions are supposed to make our lives easier, not harder.  
Forcing people to go back to revisit old code and retrofit it into new 
releases doesn't seem to me like a step in the right direction.  I hope 
we could avoid that.
