I am afraid you will have to manually check that there are no conflicts
[or else move to mlpack in 8.6]

This is unfortunate; I feel however that differences should be
manageable would you like to move to 8.7.

In practice, using anything older than 8.7 implies that your plugin will
receive less support from the Coq side: hundredths of bugs have been
fixed since 8.5, and with developer time being quite limited these days,
bugs that cannot be tested against current version tend to slide to
bottom of TODO lists.
