Make sure you are able to repro it on the [latest released version](https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases)\n- [X] Search the existing issues.\n- [X] Refer to the [FAQ](https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/blob/master/docs/FAQ.md).\n- [X] Refer to [Differences between Windows PowerShell 5.1 and PowerShell](https://docs.microsoft.com/powershell/scripting/whats-new/differences-from-windows-powershell).\n\n### Steps to reproduce\n\n*Start-PSBootstrap* fails on PowerShell 5.1 due to use of unsupported type `[System.Management.Automation.SemanticVersion]` in *build.psm1* therefore it is not possible to build latest versions of PowerShell 7 on PowerShell 5.1 anymore.\n\n### Expected behavior\n\n```console\n*Start-PSBootstrap* should work on PowerShell 5.1\n```\n\n\n### Actual behavior\n\n```console\n*Start-PSBootstrap* throws error on PowerShell 5.1\n```\n\n\n### Error
