I think at a certain point you have to cut off backwards compatibility unless it is VERY easy. You can't worry about OS X.2 users anymore than you should worry about Windows ME users. If the developer can pull it off, great, but... you can only do so much.
As far as I'm concerned any consumer electronic hardware should support the big three options (linux, mac, windows) in their present states (maybe going back 5 years at most) and just consider that the way things have to be done. Software can be developed that way, and given how unsophisticated most of this stuff is there is no excuse it shouldn't be.
