I don't know for sure but LO did many more incompatible API changes as
far as I know and I assume that depending on the API's an extension used
the compatibility can be broken. But that has nothing with AOO alone to
do. C++ extensions are always somewhat special and they can become
incompatible simply because of a compiler upgrade that is necessary from
time to time.
