FWIW the sf page for build 219 shows less than 100 downloads for 2.5/6
and 3.1/2.

Unsuprisingly 2.7 dominates with 3,000 downloads at 32-bit (2,000 at
64-bit).

3.3 comes in just over 100 and 3.4/5 each a few hundreds.

So I feel no particular compunction about dropping forward support for
2.6 and lower and 3.2 and lower. (Could say 2.5/3.1 but it's the same
SDK level I think).
