While it's best to use the same version, being within a couple
point-releases should be "good enough".  E.g., 2.2.6 to 2.2.9
should be fine.  However, going across major releases (e.g. 2.2 -> 2.4)
is not guaranteed to be both forwards and backwards compatible.  We try
to remain compatible, but don't always succeed.
