UIstoryboard: Animates option for Modal segues is not available on iOS versions prior to 6.0

I'm getting the above warnings using Xcode 5 with a deployment target set to iOS 5.0.

I'm not sure whether to simply ignore these warnings OR find an alternative way of providing this functionality for iOS5.

As far as I can see I have a number of imperfect solutions:

Option 1: present the MainStoryboard programmatically for iOS6+; replace modal segues on a different storyboard for iOS5 with

presentViewController:animated:completion:

Option2: would be to drop modal segues entirely from the storyboard(s), calling any segues within IBAction methods

Option3: ignore the warnings (would the app still be accepted?).

(Yes, I'm aware of "target iOS6+ only" as an option)

I'd appreciate advice from those who've found ways to solve this problem.

Update: solved this thanks to Mikael's answer below: I subclassed UIStoryboardSegue as below

#import "StandardModalSegue.h"

@implementation StandardModalSegue
- (void) perform {
    //my conditional version of NSLog()
    myLog(kLogVC, 2, @"%@ to %@",self.sourceViewController ,self.destinationViewController);
    //iOS5 replacement for presentModalViewController:animated:
    [self.sourceViewController presentViewController:self.destinationViewController animated:YES completion:nil];
}
@end

and used it in storyboard thus

It's the animate checkbox in interface builder that creates this error. If you want to get rid of it and not animate your modal segue you need to create a custom segue and override -(void) perform

All you have to do is keep the segues you have now but set them to custom. Then you create a subclass of UIStoryboardSegue. In the implementation file you put:

- (void)perform
{
// Add your own animation code here.

    [[self sourceViewController] presentModalViewController:[self destinationViewController] animated:NO];
}

You can then use this segue like any other segue. If it's attached to a UIButton it gets called automatically and you do not need performSegue. If not you can use the performSegue that is compatible with iOS5 or even choose a performSegue depending on the version of OS.
