But then both 1.1 would not compile. The old because of this, and the new
because of the expression bug. Or do you mean something like this:

{$ifdef VER1_0}
  // the 1.0.x way 
{$ELSE} 
  // the 1.1.x AND LATER way 
  {$IFDEF New1_1}
    // current, but buggy 1.1
  {$ELSE}
    // old, but working 1.1
  {$ENDIF}
{$endif}

It seems this place makes too much trouble and confusion. I will add a
comment and try to get a newer 1.1.
