As soon as APIVERSION avoids fixes or useful improvments (i.e. director
plugin :-)) it should be dropped. As already mentioned before there are so
many patches which chamge the api, that the APIVERSION is not a very
reliable way to avoid the need of recompiling plugins. Anyway is it a big
mess to recompile the plugins? This additinal step while compiling a new
vdr version should not take too long.
