Jens is right - if a new revision starts causing problems, you can easily rewind in SVN with the "Update to revision..." command. (I use TortoiseSVN.) This lets you rewind back to any SVN revision you want. The "Show log" command gives you a list. If you do run into a new problem, you can use this trick to help the Away3D development team troubleshoot it by isolating exactly in which revision the problem started.
Another trick we use is to "freeze" our Away3D library from time to time by checking out a specific rev or tag, and linking to that in Flash instead of the trunk. We have hundreds of fla's that use Away3D going back to 1.8 and it would be impossible to constantly keep them updated and tested to 100% work with the latest trunk.
