8.5.12 will be 10 years old at the time of releasing 3.11.

We can relax the requirements for 8.5.x, so the code can be build with older 
versions, but some tests will fail because we removed workarounds for 
differences in behavior in older versions from tests.

The LTS distributions can also provide their own patches which relax the 
requirements.
