Well, fair enough, but do we really need to support older pikes than the current stable? The inclusion of 90 lines of compat code, many of which are never used, doesn't really make the file more pretty...
That's a good idea I think. The testing with older Pikes than that is probably only incidental anyways.
Well, the previous commit of the file caused the build systems of both Pikefarm and Roxen to fail.
Only because they didn't have the latest stable pike, which is simple enough to fix. I have installed 7.8.116 on Pikefarm, but I'll leave Roxen up to someone who as an account there... ;-)
Besides, your "fix" didn't make it work in the old pike on Pikefarm anyway:
/export/spare/pike/data/pikefarm/out_work/7.8/Pike/7.8/bin/export.pike:42:Index 'PROP_REVERSE' not present in module 'Stdio'.
Pikefarm was actually running 7.4. Didn't look like anyone had been compiling a pike on that machine for a long time. :-)
