fix certain version checks #352

Closed rbergmair closed 1 year ago

Nimforum is completely broken for me, trying to compile/run it through nim 2.0.0.

Symptom

Solution

It seems to me that some version checks are at fault that have come in through a recently-merged PR (#339).

I would expect that the check for NimMinor >= 9 would fail for version 2.0.0. After changing the check to something that makes more sense to me, the error disappeared.
