Yes, I think requiring 4.1 was too aggressive.

Interesting, I haven't found much on eglib except the github repo which says:

"The purpose of eglib is to be an X11-licensed subset of glib that can
be used with Mono when the Mono runtime is explicitly relicensed under
a different license by Novell."

If that's the main reason to create the library, then I'm happy to
stick with glib.
