We rebuilt Version 4.50 to work with the new ESL, because that was the current version at the time this new technology was incorporated. We can't rebuild previous versions; 3rd party libraries are updated, tools and compilers are updated, etc. This is why we don't update or maintain older versions - we just can't. So no, anything prior to the "4.50 Final Build" will not be accessable with the new HL ESL.
Since any current version of CAESAR II will read in the input from any previous version, it is really not necessary to maintain all the older versions. However, for anyone in a "bind", this issue will be dealt with on a case by case basis via e-mail.
