Backwards compatibility of that kind is not guaranteed, but I can't think of
any changes that happened that would actually break it. If there are any
relevant compatibility options in the build process, you should switch them
on though. It can't hurt, in any case.

Possibly in the archives of the list; I've not seen much documentation either.
However if you have specific problems you might be able to ask for help on
this list and figure out what's up.
