I think we should do (1) because both (2) will permit surprising,
nonobvious changes in behaviour and (3) is just nasty engineering.
Alternatively, add a (4) which is (2) with "whinge on startup if 0.1.4
is installed" to make identifying this situation easy.

The last thing a new / upgraded deployment wants is something like
nova, or a third party API script failing in nonobvious ways with no
breadcrumbs to lead them to 'upgrade iso8601' as an answer.
