I can't see that we'd expend the effort to fix documentation in
de-supported versions.  But certainly, if someone were to point out an
error that also exists in supported versions, we'd wish to fix it in the
supported versions.  Is there a way, rather than just blocking comments on
the old versions, to provide a message to the effect of "please comment
on version x.y or newer, if the issue still exists there"?
