I recently went thru a similar upgrade from 3.5 to 6.3.x

We did not update any of our cas client jars (using 3.6) and all appeared 
to still work. Even our shibboleth idp 4.x was still working. Only problem 
we had was where some app owners where creating their own cas client using 
python and flask ... the ticket validation response was different enough to 
break those apps. I'd image if a standard cas client library was used they 
would not have had a problem.
