The intention was certainly not to break backward compatibility. If 
something isn't working the same, it's a bug, not a backward compatibility 
violation (unless, of course, the original behavior was a bug and was 
simply being fixed). It's always a good idea to test upgrades before 
deploying to production, and if you find bugs, report them -- they will 
usually be fixed very quickly. Even better, test out the nightly builds or 
trunk from time to time, and report bugs before they make it into stable 
releases.
