The alpha/beta/rc versions preceding a release are never supported after the next alpha/beta/rc is released (meaning beta3 stops being supported when rc1 goes out, and the last rc stops being supported when the release goes out.) Like the message says, you can define ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED_SYSTEM to continue using the non supported version you are running. -- Mathieu Arnold
