Indeed, and AFAIR dropping the support for any OS versions always was technically motivated at OOo. Of course "technical motivations" are debatable. Maintaining compatibility layers for OS versions that are as old as the hills IMHO *is* a technical problem. If the maintenance or the presence of the library has a negative impact on build system or code quality, the motivation to remove it grows with the age of the OS version and the shrinking user base.
