I personally don't think we'll need pre-4.5-CSC with 6.2 anymore. But if
people feel uneasy about that "drastical change", maybe move them to an
ext in TER. For shipping them with 6.2 (although not installed by
default) I don't see a real reason. We suggest everybody should at least
upgrade to 4.5 before going to 6.2 anyway.
