The meaning of "in favor of" is unclear in this and the next sections. How about:

Obsolete.  Replaced by

Using the link there is exactly right, makes it easy for the reader to find what they need. Nice!

Should be <application> tags instead of literal.

"can be used...cannot be used" is a little confusing. Maybe "...to specify a version which does not work with this port." Or, if INVALID_BDB_VER can accept a range of values, "...to specify versions which do not work with this port."
