Agreed I've hade several problems due to this in the course doing
upgrade with the 4.x MySQL releases.
For exemple they made (IMHO gratuitious) incompatible changes to the
mysqldump command line tool which is used to export data so that in
can later be mported back into an upgraded DB server. I've spent night
debugging those changes and then processing Gigabytes of data to be
able to migrate this data from one version of the server to a later
version.
No fun.
