Well, I had been making a very small glossary for the book anyway, so this is the note I am adding to the "About / Copyright" page:

Notes on the text:
I have added a very minimal glossary for some terms which are rather obscure, or no longer in general use, or in use primarily in Great Britain. Some definitions are simplified for children’s comprehension.
Caveat: The meanings of slang and idiomatic terms have evolved over the past century: some words, which were completely innocent then, have changed to more vulgar usage. Concerned parents may review the glossary for words they find objectionable, and edit the text accordingly.

What do you all think? Does this sound like a viable solution? Or should I follow darryll's advice, and make two versions?
