apr site: Table headers misleading

[Igor Galić <i....@brainsware.org>]

Hi guys,

I like to point to people on IRC or MLs to

   http://apr.apache.org/versioning.html

for explaining how versioning works at Apache (yes, I mean Apache in general..mostly)

However, someone pointed out to me today that

  http://apr.apache.org/versioning.html#examples

is confusing, in particular:

Original Version    New Version    Compatible?"
2.2.3               2.1.7          No -- Compatibility with prior minor versions is not guaranteed.

I believe it is reference to the Source Compatibility section that 
compatibility can not be guaranteed: "However, if an application uses an 
API which has become available in a particular minor version, it 
(obviously) will no longer build or operate against previous minor 
versions."
