Yes, I took for granted that my solution requires weak-linking against "new" APIs, which is a hassle. I suppose with "plain out of luck on 10.1" you mean the two-level linking problem? I admit I no longer have access to any Mac with 10.1.x installed to check this out.
Of course, one easy way out is to have a small version-checking executable that runs your main executable only if the version is correct...
