Change in binary layout means (unless your type implements 
readObject/writeObject methods, that has own rules) any change in the 
declaration of (inherited) members:
- change of type
- different declaration sequence (!)
- change of transient mode
or any change in the type inheritance (excluding interfaces).

Changes regarding methods or ctors are opaque to the binary layout.
