With our recently introduced platform support guidelines, I think we can
likely drop 2.x. The issue is timing though - feature freeze deadline is
tomorrow, and I really want to get your PSK patch included without more
delay. So just making it conditional is the simplest way to achieve it.

We still need support for gcrypt unfortunately, since nettle is not covered
by FIPS certs. So while we will be able to delete a bunch of compat code,
we'll need to refactor much of the configure test logic. I don't want to
risk doing that the day before feature freeze.
