Sure. I'll resubmit with the pragma dropped and a different comment.

Done. I'll resubmit with fixed comment.

I hardcoded 2 because no loader will call
vk_icdNegotiateLoaderICDInterfaceVersion() with a version less than 2.
But, now since we're going to advertise v3, I agree with you. We should
use MIN.

That sounds good to me. I'd like to hear Jason's opinion too on
backporting this. (Though I expect him to say yes).


Seems fine to me
