As far as I know, If your PIC runs at the faster speed, you 'probably' will
not have any trouble with the circuit.  The PICs are only guarenteed to work
at these frequecies because that is all they have been tested too.  I would
expect that there is not alot of difference between the 4 and 10 Mhz chips,
but the ones guarenteed to work at 4 have failed the tests at 10Mhz?  This
is not a good idea for production for obvious reasons.
